Used as an intermediate in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials, particularly in the synthesis of blue-emitting compounds for display technologies. Its conjugated structure enhances electron transport properties, making it valuable in electron-transport layers of optoelectronic devices. Also employed in the development of phosphorescent dopants and host materials in phosphorescent OLEDs (PHOLEDs) due to its thermal stability and ability to support high-energy emission. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the preparation of metal-organic complexes for use in advanced luminescent materials.
