Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in reactions where selective functionalization of aromatic rings is required. Its halogen substituents allow for sequential cross-coupling reactions, enabling the construction of complex organic molecules. Commonly employed in Suzuki, Stille, and Ullmann couplings to introduce aryl or heteroaryl groups. Also utilized in the development of functional materials and in medicinal chemistry for the preparation of bioactive compounds with tailored properties.
