Used in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions like Suzuki-Miyaura, to create complex molecules for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronate ester group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation, while the trifluoromethyl group enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability in drug candidates. Applied in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and biologically active compounds. Also utilized in material science for designing advanced polymers and organic electronic materials.
