Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and antiviral agents. Its structure supports the creation of biologically active molecules by serving as a building block in cross-coupling reactions and heterocyclic formations. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for optimizing drug potency and selectivity due to the presence of reactive amino and fluoro groups. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients in crop protection products.
