Used in organic synthesis as a building block for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. Its boronic acid group facilitates coupling with aryl halides, making it valuable in creating biaryl structures commonly found in bioactive molecules. The urea moiety can participate in hydrogen bonding, which may enhance binding affinity in drug design. It is also employed in the synthesis of sensors and functional materials due to the reactivity and stability of the boronic acid group.
