Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly fungicides and insecticides. Its structure enables effective modulation of biological activity in crop protection agents. Commonly employed in the development of systemic pesticides due to its ability to enhance penetration and stability in plant tissues. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for constructing bioactive molecules, especially in the discovery of kinase inhibitors and other pharmaceutical targets. The bromo and difluoromethyl groups allow for selective cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in building complex heterocyclic compounds.
