Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of fluorinated pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its unique halogenated aromatic structure enhances binding selectivity and metabolic stability in drug candidates. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies due to the electron-withdrawing effects of fluorine and bromine, which influence potency and pharmacokinetic properties. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients with improved environmental stability and biological activity.
