Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the production of insecticides and fungicides. Its structure supports the development of active ingredients that target pest nervous systems, offering high efficacy with lower environmental impact. Also explored in pharmaceutical research for its potential in developing bioactive molecules due to the stability and lipophilicity imparted by the trifluoromethyl group. Commonly utilized in crop protection formulations for systemic activity and resistance management.
