Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable in the development of complex aromatic compounds. The presence of chloro, fluoro, and methoxy substituents allows for further functionalization or influences electronic properties in target molecules, useful in medicinal chemistry for tuning bioavailability and binding affinity. Commonly applied in the synthesis of drug candidates and functional materials requiring specific substitution patterns on aromatic rings.
