Used primarily as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, this compound enables the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Its boronate ester group facilitates efficient coupling with aryl or vinyl halides under palladium catalysis, making it valuable in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science research. The presence of the methoxystyryl moiety allows for the construction of conjugated systems, often found in optoelectronic materials and bioactive compounds. Its stability and reactivity profile make it suitable for use in late-stage functionalization during drug development.
