Used in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to synthesize pharmaceutical intermediates and functionalized pyridine derivatives. Its boronic acid group enables formation of carbon-carbon bonds, making it valuable in drug discovery and development of bioactive molecules. Commonly applied in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and other therapeutic agents where substituted pyridines are key structural elements. Also utilized in materials science for constructing organic electronic compounds due to its aromatic and heterocyclic nature.
