Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules and drug candidates. Its fluorinated aromatic structure enhances metabolic stability and binding affinity in medicinal chemistry applications. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and other targeted therapies. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients with improved efficacy and selectivity. Suitable for use in Suzuki and other cross-coupling reactions due to the presence of the fluoro substituent, enabling further functionalization in synthetic pathways.
