The title compound, C(5)H(4)Br(2)S(4), consists of a statistically planar, 4-bromo-1,3-dithiole-2-thione unit [maximum deviation from the ring plane 0.001 (2) Å], with a bromo-ethyl-sulfanyl substituent in the 5-position. In the crystal structure, weak inter-molecular S⋯S [3.438 (15) and 3.522 (15) Å] and S⋯Br [3.422 (14) and 3.498 (14) Å] inter-actions generate a three-dimensional supra-molecular architecture.
