Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the synthesis of complex pyridine derivatives for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boronate ester group facilitates carbon-carbon bond formation under mild conditions, making it valuable in drug discovery and development of bioactive molecules. Commonly employed in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and other therapeutic agents where substituted pyridines are structural motifs. Also applied in materials science for constructing conjugated systems in organic electronics.
