Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) with potential therapeutic properties. It is also employed in organic chemistry research for the preparation of complex molecules, including fluorinated compounds, which are valuable in drug discovery and material science. Additionally, it may serve as a building block in the production of agrochemicals, contributing to the creation of pesticides or herbicides with enhanced efficacy. Its fluorinated structure makes it useful in designing compounds with improved stability and bioavailability.
