Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form biaryl compounds. Its boronic acid group enables carbon-carbon bond formation, useful in drug discovery for creating complex aromatic structures. The fluorine and benzylcarbamoyl substituents enhance binding selectivity and metabolic stability in bioactive molecules, making it valuable in developing kinase inhibitors and other therapeutic agents. Also applied in materials science for synthesizing conjugated organic frameworks with electronic properties.
