Used primarily in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the production of more complex chemical compounds. It plays a role in the development of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the creation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where fluorinated aromatic compounds are essential. Additionally, it is utilized in agrochemical research for designing and synthesizing new pesticides and herbicides, leveraging its fluorine and methoxy functional groups to enhance biological activity and stability. Its application extends to material science, where it contributes to the development of specialty chemicals and advanced materials.
