Used in organic synthesis as a key intermediate for the preparation of complex molecules, particularly in cross-coupling reactions like Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. Its boronate ester structure makes it valuable for constructing carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials. The difluoro and methoxy groups enhance its reactivity and selectivity in these processes. It is also employed in the development of fluorescent probes and sensors due to its stable boron-containing framework. Additionally, it finds use in the synthesis of bioactive compounds and polymers with specialized properties.
