This chemical is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions such as the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. It serves as a boronic acid derivative, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, which is crucial in the construction of complex organic molecules. Its tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) protecting group ensures stability during reactions, allowing selective deprotection when needed. This compound is valuable in pharmaceutical research for synthesizing drug intermediates and in materials science for creating advanced polymers and organic electronic materials. Its application is also seen in the development of bioactive compounds and agrochemicals due to its ability to introduce specific functional groups into target molecules.
