Used in organic synthesis as a stable and versatile reagent, particularly in cross-coupling reactions. It facilitates the introduction of phthalimido groups into molecules, which are valuable intermediates in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its trifluoroborate moiety enhances stability and reactivity, making it suitable for use in aqueous or protic conditions. Commonly employed in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds, enabling the synthesis of complex organic compounds. Its applications extend to the development of bioactive molecules and functional materials.
