Used primarily as a specialty intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of fluorinated pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its strained bicyclic structure combined with a reactive difluorovinyl group allows for selective transformations, enabling the introduction of fluorine-containing motifs into more complex molecules. This compound is valuable in medicinal chemistry for enhancing metabolic stability and bioavailability in drug candidates. It also finds use in the synthesis of novel fluorinated building blocks for materials science applications.
