This specialty chemical is primarily used as an intermediate in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. In pharmaceuticals, it serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory drugs targeting infections. Its unique fluorinated structure enables effective interactions with biological targets, enhancing drug efficacy.

In agrochemicals, it is utilized in the development of fungicides, pesticides, and herbicides. The fluorine-rich composition contributes to the stability and potency of these products, making them effective against pests, weeds, and fungal diseases.
