Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon bonds. Its boronic acid group enables efficient coupling with aryl or heteroaryl halides, making it valuable in the development of complex molecules. Commonly applied in medicinal chemistry for constructing pyridine-based scaffolds found in bioactive compounds. Also utilized in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors and other therapeutic agents where substituted pyridines are key structural elements.
