Used primarily as a building block in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, this compound enables the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Its boronate ester group readily reacts with aryl or heteroaryl halides in the presence of a palladium catalyst, making it valuable in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. The presence of the chloro and trifluoromethyl groups allows for further functionalization or modulation of electronic properties, enhancing its utility in drug discovery and materials science. It is especially useful in creating pyridine-based derivatives with tailored biological activity or physical characteristics.
