Used primarily in organic synthesis as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and functional materials. Its brominated aromatic structure makes it suitable for cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Ullmann reactions, enabling the construction of complex biaryl and terphenyl systems. Commonly employed in the development of liquid crystals, organic semiconductors, and photoactive compounds due to its rigid backbone and tunable electronic properties. Also explored in the design of supramolecular architectures and sensors where halogen bonding plays a key role.
