Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to construct biaryl compounds, which are common scaffolds in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronic acid group enables formation of carbon-carbon bonds with aryl halides under palladium catalysis. The tert-butoxy substituent acts as an electron-donating group, influencing reactivity and regioselectivity in coupling reactions. Commonly employed in the development of functional materials, drug intermediates, and complex molecules requiring selective aromatic functionalization. Stable under standard conditions and compatible with various functional groups, making it suitable for multi-step syntheses.
