Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable in drug discovery and development. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors, receptor agonists, and other therapeutic agents. Also utilized in the construction of boron-containing molecules for potential applications in materials science and sensors. Its piperazine moiety enhances solubility and binding affinity in biological systems, contributing to improved pharmacokinetic properties in target molecules.
