2-(3-Fluoro-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)-2-methylpropanenitrile

This compound, with CAS 1818210-26-2 and molecular formula C16H21BFNO2, is characterized by a phenyl ring substituted with a fluorine atom, a boronic acid pinacol ester, and a 2-methylpropanenitrile group. The boronic ester moiety makes it highly valuable for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of new carbon-carbon bonds. The presence of fluorine can introduce specific electronic and steric properties, while the nitrile group offers further opportunities for derivatization or as a synthetic handle. It is primarily utilized as a research-use chemical intermediate in the development of complex organic molecules.

• Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, eye protection, and a lab coat. Use in a well-ventilated area or fume hood to avoid inhalation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Store in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed safety information before use.
