Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of liquid crystals and advanced organic materials. Its brominated aromatic structure makes it suitable for cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Ullmann reactions, enabling the construction of complex conjugated systems. Commonly employed in the development of organic semiconductors, OLEDs, and specialty polymers due to its ability to enhance thermal stability and tune electronic properties. Also utilized in pharmaceutical research as a building block for biaryl-containing compounds.
