Used in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to synthesize complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boronic acid group enables formation of carbon-carbon bonds with aryl or vinyl halides, facilitating the construction of biaryl structures. The presence of bromine allows for further functionalization, making it a valuable building block in medicinal chemistry for developing drug candidates. Also applied in materials science for creating organic semiconductors and fluorescent compounds.
