Used as a reagent in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in organic synthesis. Its naphthalene backbone with a methoxy group enhances electronic and steric properties, making it suitable for constructing complex aromatic systems found in pharmaceuticals and functional materials. The trifluoroborate moiety offers improved stability and handling compared to boronic acids, allowing for more efficient and selective coupling under mild conditions. Commonly applied in the synthesis of bioactive molecules and conjugated organic compounds for optoelectronic devices.
