Used primarily as a multifunctional monomer in the synthesis of conjugated microporous polymers and covalent organic frameworks. Its bromomethyl groups enable efficient cross-linking reactions, making it valuable in constructing porous organic materials for gas storage, catalysis, and optoelectronic applications. Also employed as a building block in the preparation of dendrimers and star-shaped organic semiconductors due to its rigid, three-dimensional structure. The compound’s reactivity allows post-polymerization modifications, facilitating the introduction of various functional groups for tailored surface properties in advanced material design.
