Used in organic synthesis as a building block for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable for constructing biaryl compounds. The bromo and butoxy substituents provide sites for further functionalization or influence electronic and solubility properties in advanced materials and drug intermediates. Commonly employed in research settings for designing complex aromatic structures.
