Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of active ingredients requiring trifluoromethoxy and bromo functional groups for enhanced biological activity. Its structure supports coupling reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing complex molecules. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive compounds. Also utilized in research for developing novel materials and fluorinated organic compounds with improved metabolic stability and lipophilicity.
