2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorobenzeneboronic acid is utilized in the palladium-catalyzed Suzuki reaction to synthesize several cross-coupled aromatic compounds, for example bis(pentafluorophenyl)-substituted thiophene and selenophene derivatives. It serves as an intermediate and raw material in pharmaceutical and chemical industry. It is also used in dyes and pigments. It can be used to prepare cyclic boronates of bifunctional compounds.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
