Used in organic synthesis as a key intermediate for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical development. Particularly valuable in the preparation of biaryl compounds found in active pharmaceutical ingredients. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl halides under palladium catalysis, making it useful in drug discovery and the synthesis of complex molecules with potential biological activity. Also applied in the development of kinase inhibitors and other targeted therapies due to the structural features of its fluorinated and methoxylated aromatic ring.
