Used as a key chiral building block in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceuticals where stereochemistry plays a critical role. Its strained cyclopropane ring and fluorine substituent enhance metabolic stability and binding affinity in drug candidates. Commonly employed in the development of antiviral and central nervous system agents due to its ability to modulate lipophilicity and improve bioavailability. Also utilized in agrochemicals for creating stereoselective active ingredients with improved environmental profiles.
