Used as an intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis. Its boronate ester group facilitates palladium-catalyzed coupling with aryl or vinyl halides under mild conditions, making it valuable in the preparation of complex organic molecules, especially in drug discovery and materials science. The bromo and methyl substituents enhance reactivity and influence regioselectivity in coupling processes.
