Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of fluorinated pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antiviral and anticancer agents. Its structure supports the formation of nucleoside analogs that can interfere with DNA and RNA synthesis in pathogens or tumor cells. Also employed in the preparation of agrochemicals and functional materials where nitrogen-rich heterocycles are required. Its amino and fluoro groups allow for selective modifications, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building bioactive molecules.
