Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, to create complex organic compounds. It serves as a key intermediate in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. Its boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable for constructing carbon-carbon bonds. Applied in the production of bioactive molecules, such as drug candidates, by facilitating the introduction of cyclobutylpyridine moieties. Also utilized in research for designing novel compounds with potential therapeutic or industrial applications.
