Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds. Its boronic acid functionality enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation, particularly in the development of pyridine-based drug candidates. Commonly applied in medicinal chemistry for constructing kinase inhibitors and other targeted therapies. The ethoxycarbonyl and methyl substituents enhance reactivity and selectivity in coupling processes, making it valuable in the preparation of complex heterocyclic systems found in agrochemicals and functional materials.
