Used in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to synthesize complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boronic acid group enables formation of carbon-carbon bonds with aryl or vinyl halides, facilitating the construction of biaryl structures. The bromine substituent allows for further functionalization, making it a versatile building block in medicinal chemistry. Commonly employed in the development of thiophene-based compounds with potential applications in materials science, such as organic semiconductors and conjugated polymers.
