Used as a photoredox catalyst in organic synthesis, enabling light-driven reactions such as carbon-carbon bond formation and radical generation under mild conditions. Its photochemical properties make it suitable for applications in polymerization initiation, particularly in controlled radical polymerization techniques. Also employed in cross-coupling reactions where traditional metal catalysts may fail, offering improved selectivity and reduced side reactions. Additionally, it serves as a reagent in fluoride ion release systems for specialized etching and surface modification processes in materials science.
