Used as a key building block in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the synthesis of complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boronate ester group readily participates in palladium-catalyzed couplings with aryl or vinyl halides, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. The methyl ester functionality allows for further synthetic transformations, such as hydrolysis or reduction, making it valuable in multi-step organic synthesis. Commonly employed in the development of conjugated systems, including those found in functional materials and bioactive compounds.
