Used in organic electronics as a building block for semiconducting materials, especially in the production of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and field-effect transistors. Its rigid, planar structure supports efficient π-conjugation, enhancing electron mobility. Also employed in the synthesis of dyes, fluorescent probes, and polymers for optoelectronic applications. Commonly found in research for developing new organic photovoltaic materials due to its stability and ease of functionalization.
