Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of agrochemicals and bioactive molecules. Its boronic acid functionality enables Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, allowing for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in heterocyclic systems. This makes it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing pyridine-based compounds with potential activity as enzyme inhibitors or receptor modulators. It is also employed in the preparation of ligands and functional materials where precise molecular architecture is required.
