This chemical is primarily utilized in the field of materials science, particularly in the development of organic semiconductors and optoelectronic devices. Its structure allows for efficient electron transport, making it suitable for use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs). Additionally, it serves as a building block in the synthesis of coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are explored for gas storage, separation, and catalysis applications. Its ability to form stable complexes with metal ions also makes it relevant in the design of sensors and luminescent materials.
