Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals due to its reactive fluorinated aromatic structure. Its electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms enhance reactivity in nucleophilic aromatic substitution, making it valuable in the preparation of fluorinated compounds with improved metabolic stability and bioavailability. Commonly employed in the development of herbicides, fungicides, and active ingredients in crop protection agents. Also utilized in materials science for designing specialty polymers and liquid crystals with enhanced thermal and chemical resistance.
