Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of conductive polymers and organic semiconductors, particularly in the development of advanced electronic materials such as organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Its structure supports strong intermolecular interactions, enhancing charge transport properties in thin-film devices. Also employed in the preparation of dyes and fluorescent probes due to its electron-rich aromatic core. In research, it serves as a building block for covalent organic frameworks (COFs), contributing to porous materials for gas storage or catalysis. Its bromine groups allow for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for creating complex nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
