Description:3-Acetylbenzeneboronic acid is an organoboron compound characterized by the presence of both a boronic acid functional group and an acetyl group attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a boron atom bonded to a hydroxyl group and an aryl group, which in this case is a substituted phenyl ring with an acetyl group at the meta position. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents. It is known for its utility in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, where it serves as a boron source for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Additionally, 3-acetylbenzeneboronic acid can act as a ligand in coordination chemistry and has potential applications in medicinal chemistry due to its ability to interact with biological targets. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as boronic acids can be sensitive to moisture and may require specific storage conditions.
