4,4,5,5,-Tetramethyl-2-phenylsulfanylmethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane is used to prepare aryl/heteroaryl derivatives via the formation of C-C and C-hetero bonds.
It can also be used as:
- A starting material in the synthesis of α-aminoboronic acids as serine proteases inhibitors.
- A substrate in the coupling reactions with carbonyl compounds under Ir-catalyzed photoredox conditions.
