IN THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 13,15-dibromo-6-nitro-3,10-dithia-tricyclo-[10.2.2.2(5,8)]octa-deca-1(14),5,7,12,15,17-hexa-ene], C(16)H(13)Br(2)NO(2)S(2), the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 0.93 (2)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak π-π inter-molecular inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.286 (5) Å]. One S atom and the H atoms on neighboring C atoms are disordered over two sets of sites (occupancy ratios: S = 0.91:0.09 and H = 0.93:0.07).
