Used in organic synthesis as a boronic ester reagent for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. Its stability and reactivity make it suitable for constructing biaryl compounds and functionalized aromatic systems. Commonly employed in late-stage functionalization of complex molecules due to the tolerance of various functional groups. The ortho-bromoethyl substituent provides opportunities for additional synthetic transformations, such as nucleophilic substitutions, alkylations, or further cross-coupling reactions, allowing access to more intricate molecular scaffolds. Also utilized in materials science for synthesizing conjugated polymers and organic electronic materials.
