Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the development of insecticides and fungicides. Its structure supports bioactivity against certain pests due to the presence of trifluoromethyl and chlorophenyl groups, which enhance lipophilicity and membrane penetration. Also investigated for use in pharmaceutical research for potential anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Employed in the design of novel heterocyclic compounds to explore structure-activity relationships in drug discovery.
