Abstract

In the title compound, C10H11BrS2, the 1,3-di-thiane ring has a chair conformation with the 1,4-disposed C atoms being above and below the remaining four atoms. The bromo-benzene ring occupies an equatorial position and forms a dihedral angle of 86.38 (12)° with the least-squares plane through the 1,3-di-thiane ring. Thus, to a first approximation the mol-ecule has mirror symmetry with the mirror containing the bromo-benzene ring and the 1,4-disposed C atoms of the 1,3-di-thiane ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules associate via weak methyl-ene-bromo-benzene C-H⋯π and π-π [Cg⋯Cg = 3.7770 (14) Å for centrosymmetrically related bromo-benzene rings] inter-actions, forming supra-molecular layers parallel to [10-1]; these stack with no specific inter-molecular inter-actions between them.
