3-Methoxyphenylboronic acid (3-methoxybenzeneboronic acid; m-anisylboronic acid) is a useful arylboronic acid coupling partner widely employed in Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling and related palladium-catalysed transformations for the preparation of methoxy-substituted biaryls, heterobiaryls, and other anisole-derived intermediates. Its meta-methoxy substitution makes it a practical reagent for introducing an electron-rich aryl fragment into synthetic sequences in medicinal chemistry, ligand synthesis, and functional materials research, while retaining the broad utility expected from a standard boronic acid building block. This follows your locked product-description rule: one paragraph only, bold compound name at the start, include a key synonym, and state primary applications without repeating formula, MW, purity, or physical form

Common Scientific Applications

Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling

  • Widely used arylboronic acid for the construction of meta-methoxy-substituted biaryl and heteroaryl frameworks via palladium-catalysed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling — the electron-donating methoxy group at the 3-position modulates the electronic density of the aryl ring and influences coupling reactivity and regioselectivity
  • Compatible with a broad range of Suzuki protocols including aqueous, microwave-assisted, ligand-free, and base-free conditions, as well as with diverse electrophilic coupling partners including aryl chlorides, bromides, iodides, and triflates
  • Applied in the synthesis of meta-anisyl biaryl scaffolds encountered frequently in pharmaceutical and agrochemical compound libraries

Medicinal Chemistry & Drug Discovery

  • Key building block for the introduction of meta-methoxyphenyl motifs into drug candidates and lead compounds — the methoxy group at the meta position contributes to lipophilicity modulation, metabolic stability profiling, and binding pocket complementarity in structure-activity relationship studies
  • Applied in the synthesis of intermediates for compound libraries targeting diverse protein classes, where the meta-substituted aryl group provides a distinct spatial and electronic profile relative to ortho and para isomers
  • Used in fragment-based drug discovery as a versatile aryl building block amenable to further functionalisation via boronate ester formation, Chan–Lam coupling, and oxidative cross-coupling strategies

Agrochemical & Materials Applications

  • Applied in the synthesis of meta-methoxyphenyl-containing agrochemical intermediates where the methoxy substituent influences bioactivity, environmental persistence, and physicochemical properties of the final active substance
  • Used in the development of functional organic materials, conjugated polymers, and sensors where the boronic acid group enables reversible diol binding and dynamic boronate ester formation for stimuli-responsive material design

Boronate Esters & Iterative Synthesis

  • Precursor for meta-methoxyphenyl boronate esters (pinacol, MIDA, neopentyl glycol esters) applied in iterative cross-coupling strategies and complex molecule assembly workflows
  • Applied in diol-sensing and saccharide recognition systems where the boronic acid group forms reversible covalent bonds with 1,2- and 1,3-diols — a well-established motif in supramolecular chemistry and chemosensor design
