Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic compounds, particularly in the production of dyes, pigments, and agrochemicals. Its structure makes it valuable for creating complex molecules in pharmaceutical research, where it can be incorporated into active ingredients. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the development of specialty chemicals, including those used in corrosion inhibitors and polymer additives. Its halogenated aniline properties also make it useful in analytical chemistry as a reagent for specific chemical reactions.
