Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Its structure allows for the creation of compounds with potential therapeutic properties. Commonly employed in organic synthesis to introduce specific functional groups into more complex molecules. Plays a role in the production of agrochemicals, aiding in the development of herbicides or pesticides. Its fluorinated and chlorinated aromatic ring makes it valuable in research for designing molecules with enhanced biological activity or stability.
