Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its fluorine and propoxy substituents make it valuable for constructing bioactive molecules with enhanced metabolic stability and lipophilicity. Commonly employed in the development of drug candidates targeting central nervous system disorders and inflammatory diseases. Also utilized in materials science for designing fluorinated organic semiconductors and liquid crystals.
