Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where the fluoro-aniline moiety enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability. Its ester and amino functional groups allow for further chemical modifications, making it valuable in constructing complex drug molecules, especially in central nervous system agents and anti-inflammatory compounds. Also employed in the preparation of agrochemicals and specialty organic materials requiring fluorinated aromatic building blocks.
