Used in organic synthesis as a versatile building block for cross-coupling reactions, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. It facilitates the formation of carbon-carbon bonds, enabling the creation of complex molecules for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronic acid group is key for attaching pyridine derivatives to other aromatic or heteroaromatic systems. Commonly employed in the development of drug candidates, especially in targeting specific enzymes or receptors. Also utilized in material science for designing organic electronic compounds. Its stability and reactivity make it a valuable intermediate in medicinal chemistry and industrial applications.
