Used in organic electronics as a key intermediate for synthesizing conjugated polymers in high-performance organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Its brominated thienothiophene core enables efficient Stille or Suzuki coupling reactions, facilitating the construction of donor-acceptor type polymer backbones. The dodecyl ester side chain improves solubility in organic solvents, aiding solution processing and thin-film fabrication. This compound contributes to enhanced charge carrier mobility and light absorption when incorporated into active layers of optoelectronic devices.
