Abstract

In the title compound, C(22)H(17)NO(5)S(2), the dithiole and oxindole rings are almost coplanar [dihedral angle = 2.71 (8)°] and the phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 73.65 (5)° with the oxindole ring. Inter-molecular π-π contacts between adjacent oxindole and dithiole rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.7273 (11) Å] stabilize the crystal packing.
