Used in the development of advanced organic materials, particularly in the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its ability to form stable, porous structures. It is also employed in the creation of luminescent materials for optoelectronic devices, such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), where its unique structure enhances light emission efficiency. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the design of polymers with high thermal stability and mechanical strength, making it suitable for applications in high-performance coatings and composites. Its multifunctional nature allows for its use in catalysis, where it can act as a ligand to stabilize metal centers in various chemical reactions.
