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, particularly in drug discovery and development. The presence of bromo and methoxy substituents allows for selective functionalization and further derivatization, enhancing its utility in building aromatic frameworks. Commonly employed in research laboratories for the synthesis of bioactive compounds and functional materials.
