Application

3,5-Difluorophenylmagnesium bromide can be used:
  • As a starting material in the synthesis of cis-2-phenyl-1-amino-cyclopentanes as AMPA receptor potentiators.
  • To prepare copper(I) complexes, which are used as luminescent guest molecules in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).
  • As an intermediate in the synthesis of 2-aminoethylbenzofuran H3 receptor antagonists.
