Used as a stable and versatile reagent in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling efficient formation of carbon-carbon bonds in complex molecule synthesis. Its boronate ester structure enhances stability and handling compared to free boronic acids, making it ideal for iterative cross-coupling strategies in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. The MIDA protecting group allows for slow release of the active boronic acid under mild conditions, improving reaction selectivity and compatibility with multi-step synthetic sequences. Commonly employed in automated synthesis platforms and library generation for drug discovery.
