Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the synthesis of complex pyridine-based compounds. These compounds are often found in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials. Its boronic acid group facilitates carbon-carbon bond formation under mild conditions, making it valuable in drug discovery and development of bioactive molecules. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and herbicides due to the favorable electronic and structural properties of the chloropyridyl moiety.
