Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of complex organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Its boronate ester group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation under mild conditions, making it valuable in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and functional materials. The presence of fluoro substituents enhances reactivity and influences electronic properties, which can improve the metabolic stability and bioavailability of target compounds. Commonly employed in research and process chemistry for building fluorinated aromatic scaffolds.
