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 palladium-catalyzed coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable in creating complex aromatic compounds. The presence of chlorine and butoxy substituents allows for further functionalization or modulation of electronic properties in target molecules. Commonly applied in the preparation of bioactive intermediates and functional materials.
