Used primarily as an intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, this compound enables the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Its boronate ester group facilitates coupling with aryl or vinyl halides under palladium catalysis, making it valuable in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. The dihydropyridine moiety can act as a masked pyridine, allowing for further functionalization or ring modification in drug discovery pathways. Its structure supports the development of bioactive molecules, particularly in medicinal chemistry where nitrogen-containing heterocycles are prevalent.
