Used in organic semiconductor materials due to its electron-transport properties. Commonly applied in the development of fluorescent sensors for metal ion detection, especially for zinc and aluminum. Serves as a key intermediate in synthesizing bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals. Also employed in OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes) as an emissive layer component. Shows potential in photovoltaic cells as a dopant for improved efficiency. Its rigid structure enhances thermal stability in optoelectronic devices.
