Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of biaryl compounds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its aldehyde and boronate functional groups allow dual reactivity, enabling sequential transformations to build complex aromatic structures. Commonly employed in the development of fluorescent dyes, organic semiconductors, and bioactive molecules. The presence of fluorine enhances binding selectivity and metabolic stability in drug design, making this compound valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing fluorinated scaffolds.
