Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. Its boronic acid group enables Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, allowing efficient formation of carbon-carbon bonds in complex molecules. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing pyridine-based scaffolds with targeted biological activity. Also utilized in the preparation of bioactive molecules in agrochemicals and materials science due to its stability and reactivity in palladium-catalyzed transformations.
