Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to construct carbon-carbon bonds. Its halogenated pyridine structure makes it valuable for developing bioactive molecules, including herbicides and kinase inhibitors. The boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl or heteroaryl halides, allowing for the tailored design of complex molecules in drug discovery and crop protection research.
