Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of organic semiconductors, particularly in the development of high-performance OLED materials. Its bromine and nitrile functional groups allow for efficient cross-coupling reactions, enabling the construction of complex conjugated systems. Commonly employed in the preparation of electron-transport materials and host compounds for blue and green phosphorescent OLEDs. Also utilized in the design of photovoltaic materials due to its rigid, planar structure that promotes strong π-π stacking and charge mobility.
