Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agricultural chemicals, particularly in the production of fungicides and herbicides. Its structure enables effective modulation of biological activity in crop protection agents, enhancing their efficacy against a broad spectrum of plant pathogens. Due to its halogenated pyridine core, it contributes to improved metabolic stability and target selectivity in active ingredients. It is also employed in the development of novel pesticides with lower environmental impact and higher resistance management profiles.
