Used in organic semiconductor materials due to its extended aromatic structure, enhancing electron transport in electronic devices. Serves as a building block in the synthesis of conjugated polymers for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Its bromine functional groups allow for further modification via cross-coupling reactions, enabling tailored electronic properties. Also investigated in fluorescent probes and dyes for imaging applications owing to its rigid, planar framework and photostability.
