Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical synthesis. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl or vinyl halides under palladium catalysis, making it valuable in constructing complex organic molecules, especially in drug discovery and development. The trimethylsilyl-protected hydroxymethyl group enhances stability and solubility during reaction processes, allowing for selective deprotection when needed. Commonly applied in the synthesis of bioactive pyrazole derivatives with potential therapeutic activity.
