Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fluorinated pyridine derivatives with biological activity. It serves in the preparation of agrochemicals and functional materials due to its reactive nitro and fluoro groups, which allow further substitution reactions. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing kinase inhibitors and antimicrobial agents. Also utilized in the production of dyes and specialty polymers where aromatic nitrogen compounds enhance thermal and chemical stability.
