2-[2-(2-Bromo­phen­yl)-2-oxoeth­yl]-1λ(6),2-benzothia­zole-1,1,3-trione

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrNO(4)S, contains two different conformers in which the benzisothia­zole rings are essentially planar, with r.m.s. deviations of 0.012 and 0.017 Å. The mean planes of the benzene rings form dihedral angles 70.49 (13) and 72.79 (11)° with the benzisothia­zole rings. The orientation of the Br atoms in the two conformers exhibit the most pronounced difference, with opposing orientations in the two mol­ecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by π–π inter­actions between the benzene rings of the benzisothia­zole moieties of one mol­ecule and bromo­benzene rings of the other mol­ecule, with distances between the ring centroids of 3.599 (3) and 3.620 (3) Å, respectively. The crystal packing is further consolidated by pairs of weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which form inversion dimers.
