This chemical is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions such as the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. It serves as a key intermediate for constructing complex molecules, especially in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Its boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl or vinyl halides, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. This makes it valuable in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other fine chemicals. Additionally, its tert-butoxy group can provide steric hindrance, influencing the selectivity and outcome of reactions. It is also employed in material science for designing advanced organic materials and polymers.
