Used in organic synthesis as a building block for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable for constructing complex aromatic systems. The presence of a trifluoromethyl group enhances electron-withdrawing properties, which can improve metabolic stability and bioavailability in drug candidates. Commonly employed in the synthesis of bioactive molecules and functional materials requiring fluorinated aromatic motifs.
