Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of agrochemicals and biologically active compounds. Its structure allows for cross-coupling reactions, especially Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in complex molecules. Commonly employed in the creation of herbicides and insecticides due to the presence of the chloro-fluoropyridine moiety, which enhances binding affinity and metabolic stability. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for constructing novel drug candidates targeting central nervous system disorders and inflammatory diseases.
