Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds for constructing biaryl compounds. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. The ureido functionality provides hydrogen bonding capability, useful in molecular recognition and sensor design. Also employed as a building block in the development of covalent inhibitors and targeted therapeutics due to its ability to interact with specific biological targets.
