Widely used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly as an intermediate in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) requiring fluorinated aromatic moieties. Its isocyanate group readily reacts with amines and alcohols, making it valuable in constructing urea and urethane linkages found in drug molecules. It is also employed in agrochemicals to develop herbicides and pesticides, where the fluorine atoms enhance bioavailability and metabolic stability. Additionally, it serves in the preparation of specialty polymers and functional materials where thermal and chemical resistance are required. Due to its reactivity, it is often handled in controlled environments for safe incorporation into larger molecules.
