This chemical is primarily used in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the development of herbicides and pesticides. Its structure is effective in targeting and controlling a wide range of weeds and pests, making it valuable in agricultural applications. Additionally, it serves as an intermediate in the production of more complex chemical compounds used in crop protection. Its trifluoromethyl group enhances its biological activity, improving its efficacy in inhibiting the growth of unwanted plants or organisms. This compound is also explored in research for potential use in developing new active ingredients with improved environmental and safety profiles.
