Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs. It serves as a building block in organic reactions where selective bromination and fluorination are required to modify biological activity. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Heck reactions to construct complex aromatic systems. Also utilized in the preparation of agrochemicals and functional materials due to its halogenated aromatic structure, which enhances reactivity and binding specificity.
