Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and fungicides. Its structure allows for selective substitution reactions, making it valuable in creating active ingredients with enhanced biological activity. Also employed in the production of dyes and pigments due to its aromatic amine functionality, which contributes to color stability and intensity. Commonly utilized in research settings for the preparation of more complex molecules requiring chloro and fluoro substituents on an aniline backbone.
