Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of organic semiconductors and conductive materials. It participates in the preparation of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives, which are essential in the development of molecular electronics, organic superconductors, and charge-transfer complexes. Its electron-rich structure makes it valuable in creating redox-active molecules for use in electroactive polymers and thin-film devices. Also employed in the fabrication of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and as a building block in supramolecular chemistry for designing functional materials with tailored electronic properties.
