Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agricultural chemicals, particularly in the production of certain herbicides and fungicides. Its structure supports the development of active ingredients that target broadleaf weeds and fungal pathogens in crops. The compound’s halogenated and fluorinated groups enhance stability and bioactivity, making it valuable in agrochemical research and development. It is also explored in medicinal chemistry for potential bioactive molecules due to its unique electronic and steric properties.
