Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex chemical compounds, particularly in the production of dyes and pigments. Its structure allows it to contribute to the development of colorants with specific properties, such as enhanced stability and brightness. Additionally, it finds application in the pharmaceutical industry, where it serves as a building block for the creation of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Its nitro and fluoro groups make it a valuable component in organic synthesis, enabling the formation of diverse chemical structures with potential biological activity.
