Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis. Its boronate ester group facilitates efficient coupling with aryl halides under palladium catalysis, making it valuable in the preparation of complex organic molecules, including drug candidates and functional materials. The methyl ester group can be hydrolyzed or further modified, allowing for versatile downstream functionalization. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for building biaryl structures and in materials science for designing organic semiconductors.
