Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, to construct biaryl compounds which are common scaffolds in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The boronic acid group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation under mild conditions. The acetylamino group enhances solubility and can act as a directing or protecting group in multi-step syntheses. Commonly employed in the development of bioactive molecules, including drug candidates targeting enzymes and receptors. Also utilized in the preparation of sensors and functional materials where selective binding or conjugation is required.
