Used as a key intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of conjugated polymers and organic electronic materials. Its ethynyl groups readily undergo coupling reactions, making it valuable in constructing π-conjugated systems for applications in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), field-effect transistors (OFETs), and photovoltaic devices. The trimethylsilyl groups enhance solubility and stability during synthesis, allowing for easier handling and purification. It is also employed in click chemistry and Sonogashira coupling reactions to build complex molecular architectures with precise electronic properties.
