Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system (CNS) agents. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of both aromatic and amine functional groups, which enhance binding to biological targets. Commonly employed in the preparation of antidepressants and anxiolytic drugs, where the fluorophenyl moiety improves metabolic stability and membrane permeability. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry research for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies involving phenyl-substituted amines.
