Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fungicides and insecticides. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of reactive bromo and trifluoromethyl groups. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions to build complex heterocyclic systems. Also utilized in research for designing new active ingredients in crop protection products and in pharmaceutical development for anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents.
