Application

Diethyl 2-bromo-5-chloroterephthalate serves as a key building block in Suzuki-Miyaura and other palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions for synthesizing complex aromatic systems. It is particularly useful in the development of liquid crystal materials and photoactive polymers due to its rigid terephthalate core and halogen substituents. Researchers also employ this compound as a precursor for functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs).
