Abstract:
The title compound, C15H9Br2CIN2O2S, was synthesized by electrophilic addition of bromine to 2-(2-chloro-5-nitrostyryl)benzothiazole. The molecule consists of benzothiazole and 2-chloro-5-nitrophenyl rings linked by a 1,2-dibromoethane moiety. The dihedral angle between the benzothiazole and phenyl rings is 8.2(9) degrees. The benzothiazole ring is planar with a mean deviation of 0.168(7)A. The Br1--C8 and Br2--C9 bond distances are 1.972(5) and 2.007(6)A, respectively.
