Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of fluorinated pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules where the difluorocyclopropyl group enhances metabolic stability and lipophilicity. Its bromo functionality allows for further cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Negishi couplings, enabling the construction of complex aromatic systems in drug discovery. Also employed in the preparation of novel fluorinated building blocks for materials science and medicinal chemistry research.
