Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its fluorinated aromatic structure enhances binding selectivity and metabolic stability in drug design. Commonly employed in the development of bioactive molecules, including kinase inhibitors and PET radiotracers, due to the presence of fluorine and boron functional groups. Also utilized in materials science for creating fluorinated organic frameworks with unique electronic properties.
