Used as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of conjugated polymers and organic semiconductors. Its boronate ester group enables efficient carbon-carbon bond formation, making it valuable in the development of organic electronic materials such as organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), organic photovoltaics (OPVs), and light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The hexyl-substituted bithiophene moiety enhances solubility and promotes favorable π-π stacking, improving charge transport properties in thin-film devices. Commonly employed in research and development of solution-processable electronic materials.
