Used as an intermediate in organic semiconductor synthesis, particularly in the development of high-performance organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Its rigid, planar structure enhances π-π stacking, improving charge carrier mobility. Also employed in the preparation of conjugated polymers for organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), where bromine atoms allow for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions. Shows promise in creating stable, solution-processable electronic materials.
