This compound is extensively utilized as a boron source in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the synthesis of biaryl structures critical for drug discovery. Its sterically hindered design enhances selectivity in catalytic processes, making it valuable for constructing complex organic frameworks. Researchers also employ it in polymer chemistry to modify material properties via boron incorporation. Due to its air- and moisture-sensitive nature, handling under inert atmospheres is recommended.
