Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Particularly valuable in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research for constructing biaryl systems. Its boronate ester group facilitates mild and selective coupling with aryl halides, making it useful in late-stage functionalization of drug candidates. Also employed in materials science for developing organic semiconductors and conjugated polymers due to its stability and reactivity profile.
