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 quinoline core enhances binding affinity in bioactive molecules, making it valuable in drug discovery for anticancer, antimicrobial, and antimalarial agents. Also employed in materials science for developing fluorescent sensors and optoelectronic materials due to the inherent luminescence of quinoline derivatives. The boronic acid group allows for reversible interactions with diols, useful in carbohydrate sensing and targeted drug delivery systems.
