Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes and pigments due to its reactive nitro and fluoro groups. Employed in the development of certain pharmaceuticals where nitroaromatic compounds serve as precursors for reduction to amino derivatives. Also applied in research for the preparation of fluorinated organic compounds with potential biological activity. Its structure supports use in agrochemicals, particularly in the design of herbicides and fungicides. Limited use in materials science for creating specialty polymers with enhanced thermal stability.
