Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its boronic acid group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation, making it valuable in constructing complex organic molecules. The trifluoromethyl and isopentyl groups enhance lipophilicity and metabolic stability in target molecules, which is advantageous in drug design. Commonly applied in the development of fluorinated heterocyclic compounds with potential therapeutic activity.
