Used primarily in cross-coupling reactions, this compound serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronate ester group enables efficient Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, allowing the formation of carbon-carbon bonds under mild conditions. It is especially valuable in constructing complex pyrazole-based structures found in bioactive molecules. The butyl group enhances solubility and stability, improving reaction yields in late-stage functionalization of drug candidates. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for lead optimization and library synthesis.
