Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, to create complex biaryl compounds. These compounds are essential in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. The boronic acid group facilitates the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, enabling the development of novel drugs and functional materials. Its trifluoromethyl group enhances stability and bioavailability, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for designing bioactive molecules. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the synthesis of advanced polymers and ligands for catalysis.
