Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of herbicides and insecticides. Its structure supports activity against specific plant growth processes, making it valuable in crop protection products. The compound’s chloro and trifluoromethyl groups enhance its stability and binding affinity, improving efficacy in active ingredients targeting pest and weed control. It is also explored in medicinal chemistry for potential bioactive molecules due to its ability to interact with biological targets through hydrogen bonding and lipophilic interactions.
