Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals due to its highly fluorinated aromatic structure, which enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability in active compounds. Employed in the preparation of liquid crystals for display technologies, where fluorinated building blocks improve dielectric anisotropy and thermal stability. Serves as a derivatizing agent for analytical chemistry, particularly in NMR spectroscopy, where its fluorine atoms provide distinct signals for structural elucidation. Also utilized in the development of specialty polymers and surfactants with improved chemical resistance and surface activity.
