Used as a ligand in organometallic chemistry, particularly in the development of catalysts for olefin polymerization. Its structure supports the formation of stable metal complexes that exhibit high activity and selectivity in catalytic reactions. Commonly employed in research settings to fine-tune catalyst performance in ethylene and propylene polymerization processes. Also utilized in the synthesis of specialty polymers where control over molecular weight and polymer architecture is critical. Shows promise in academic and industrial applications focused on advanced polymer materials.
