Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of fluorinated aromatic drugs targeting central nervous system disorders. Its bromo and fluoro substituents allow selective cross-coupling reactions, enabling the construction of complex molecules in medicinal chemistry. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and receptor modulators due to enhanced binding affinity imparted by the halogen atoms. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing bioactive molecules with improved metabolic stability.
