Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of herbicides and insecticides. Its halogenated pyridine structure enables selective reactivity in cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in building complex molecules. Commonly employed in the preparation of active ingredients in crop protection agents due to its ability to enhance bioavailability and target specificity. Also utilized in research for developing novel kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds.
