Used in organic synthesis as a key intermediate for the preparation of biaryl compounds. It is particularly valuable in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds between aryl or heteroaryl groups. This compound is also employed in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals due to its boronic acid functionality, which facilitates selective binding and reactivity. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the synthesis of complex molecules for materials science, including polymers and sensors. Its pyridine moiety further enhances its utility in coordination chemistry and catalysis.
