The naphthalene fused ring of the title compound, C12H4Br2F6O6S2, is slightly buckled (r.m.s. deviation = 0.036 Å) along the common C—C bond and the benzene rings are twisted by 3.2 (3)°. The two trifluoromethylsulfonyl groups lie on opposite sides of the fused-ring system. The crystal structure features short intermolecular F...F contacts [2.715 (4) and 2.832 (4) Å].
