Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronate ester group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation, particularly in the development of fluorinated pyridine derivatives which are common scaffolds in bioactive molecules. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing drug candidates targeting CNS disorders, inflammation, and oncology. Also utilized in materials science for creating functional organic semiconductors and fluorescent probes due to the electron-withdrawing effect of the fluorine atom and the stability of the pyridine ring.
