Used in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to synthesize complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boronic ester group provides stability and improved reactivity, making it a valuable building block for introducing the 5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl moiety into target compounds. Commonly applied in the development of bioactive molecules and functional materials where fluorinated aromatic systems enhance metabolic stability or binding affinity.
