1-(3-Fluorophenyl)vinylboronic acid pinacol ester
1-(3-Fluorophenyl)vinylboronic acid pinacol ester (CAS 1239700-55-0; C14H18BFO2; molar mass 248.10 g/mol) is an aryl-substituted vinyl boronate ester, also named 2-[1-(3-fluorophenyl)vinyl]-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane. Supplied as a liquid of approximately 97% assay, it is a pinacol boronate building block used chiefly as a coupling partner in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling to install a 1-(3-fluorophenyl)vinyl group. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade reagent for organic synthesis.

Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling
Acts as the organoboron partner in palladium-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura reactions with aryl or heteroaryl halides and pseudohalides. The stabilised pinacol ester allows controlled carbon-carbon bond formation under standard coupling conditions.
Vinyl/styrenyl group installation
Introduces a substituted 1-(3-fluorophenyl)vinyl unit onto a target scaffold, providing access to fluorinated styrene-type intermediates and extended conjugated systems.
Pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates
Serves as a boronate building block in medicinal-chemistry and agrochemical discovery programmes where a fluorinated aromatic vinyl motif is required. Specific applications depend on the target route.
Fluorinated building block
The meta-fluorine on the aryl ring is a common motif for modulating electronic properties, metabolic stability and binding in structure-activity studies, making this reagent useful for fluorine-containing analogues.
Research and method development
Used at laboratory scale to develop and screen cross-coupling methodologies, catalyst systems and reaction conditions involving vinyl pinacol boronates.
