Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its fluorinated aromatic structure enhances bioavailability and metabolic stability in drug candidates. Commonly applied in the development of fluorinated analogs in medicinal chemistry, especially in the design of enzyme inhibitors and receptor modulators. Also utilized in materials science for creating fluorinated organic semiconductors and specialty polymers with improved thermal and oxidative stability.
