Used as a fluorescent probe in biochemical and materials science applications due to its strong emission properties and photostability. Its bulky tert-butyl groups enhance solubility in organic solvents and reduce aggregation, making it suitable for use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and as a sensor component for detecting environmental changes such as polarity or viscosity. Also employed in research settings to study energy transfer processes and as a model compound in photophysical studies.
