Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. Its boronic acid functionality enables Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, allowing efficient formation of carbon-carbon bonds in complex molecule assembly. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing heterocyclic scaffolds found in bioactive molecules. Stable and selective, it supports late-stage functionalization in drug discovery, improving potency and pharmacokinetic properties of candidate drugs.
