Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agricultural chemicals, particularly in the production of herbicides and insecticides. Its structure supports the development of active ingredients that target specific enzymes in pests or weeds, improving selectivity and efficacy. The presence of chlorine, methoxy, and trifluoromethyl groups enhances stability and bioactivity, making it valuable in crop protection chemistry. It is also utilized in research for developing new agrochemical candidates due to its favorable reactivity and functional group compatibility.
