Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. Shows activity in modulating biological pathways involved in cell proliferation. Employed in research settings to design novel agrochemicals due to its ability to enhance metabolic stability in active ingredients. Its fluorinated structure improves binding affinity and bioavailability in drug candidates. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies targeting central nervous system disorders.
