Abstract
In the title compound, C16H15BrO4S, the dihedral angle between the thiophene and benzene rings is 13.08 (16)°. The C atoms of the meta methoxy groups of the substituted benzene ring lie close to the plane of the ring [displacements = 0.049 (5) and −0.022 (4) Å], whereas the para-C atom is significantly displaced [−1.052 (4) Å]. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming C(11) chains propagating in [100].
