Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the synthesis of complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boron-containing structure allows efficient formation of carbon-carbon bonds, making it valuable in the development of biaryl compounds with tailored electronic and steric properties. Commonly employed in the preparation of functional materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients where trifluoromethyl and ether functionalities are required.
