Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of advanced electronic materials. It serves as a building block in the development of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) due to its electron-transport properties and thermal stability. Its brominated aromatic structure allows for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in creating complex conjugated systems for semiconductor applications. Also employed in the synthesis of high-performance polymers and as a dopant precursor in some optoelectronic devices.
