Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Its boronate ester group facilitates palladium-catalyzed coupling with aryl or vinyl halides, making it valuable in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research for constructing substituted aromatic systems. The presence of chlorine, fluorine, and a methyl group on the phenyl ring allows for selective functionalization and tuning of electronic properties in target compounds. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for developing bioactive molecules and in materials science for designing organic electronic materials.
