Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of organic semiconductors, particularly in the development of high-performance organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Its rigid, planar structure enhances π-π stacking, improving charge carrier mobility in thin-film electronic devices. Also employed in the preparation of fluorescent dyes and optoelectronic materials due to its strong light absorption and emission properties. Shows potential in pharmaceutical research for constructing complex heterocyclic systems with biological activity.
