Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceutical research. Its boronic ester functionality enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation with aryl halides, making it valuable in constructing complex pyridine-based structures. Commonly employed in the development of kinase inhibitors and central nervous system agents due to the piperazinyl and pyridine moieties, which are known to enhance binding affinity and solubility in drug candidates. Stable and compatible with a wide range of functional groups, it supports late-stage functionalization in medicinal chemistry.
