Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the production of fluorinated pesticides and herbicides. Its fluorinated structure enhances the stability and bioavailability of active ingredients, improving efficacy in crop protection. Also employed in pharmaceutical research for developing fluorinated heterocyclic compounds, which can influence metabolic stability and binding affinity in drug candidates. Commonly utilized in the development of nicotinamide-based derivatives for potential use in medicinal chemistry and plant growth regulators.
