Used in organic synthesis, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, to create complex molecules for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronic acid group enables the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, while the cyano and fluorine substituents enhance reactivity and selectivity. Commonly employed in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals. Also serves as a building block in material science for creating advanced polymers and functional materials. Its unique structure makes it valuable in designing compounds with specific biological or physical properties.
