This chemical is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. Its boronic acid group enables the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, making it valuable in the synthesis of complex organic molecules, including pharmaceuticals and advanced materials. The tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) protecting group enhances its stability during reactions, allowing for selective transformations. It is often employed in medicinal chemistry for the development of drug candidates, especially in the modification of aromatic compounds. Additionally, its fluorophenyl moiety can influence the electronic properties of the final product, making it useful in the design of bioactive molecules.
