Used as an intermediate in organic semiconductor synthesis, particularly in the development of conjugated polymers for organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Its brominated structure allows for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, enabling precise tuning of electronic properties. Also employed in the preparation of π-conjugated materials due to the bithiophene core’s favorable charge transport characteristics. Shows potential in creating semiconducting thin films for flexible electronics and sensors.
