Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and plant growth regulators. Its structure supports cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing biaryl systems. Also employed in research for designing kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules targeting specific enzymatic pathways. Shows utility in crop protection chemistry due to its halogenated aromatic framework, which enhances binding affinity and metabolic stability in active ingredients.
