Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of sulfonyl-containing drugs. Its boronic acid group enables Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, allowing efficient construction of biaryl structures in drug discovery. Commonly applied in the preparation of protease inhibitors and other bioactive molecules where the dimethylsulfamoyl group enhances metabolic stability and binding affinity. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients with improved efficacy and environmental profiles.
