The absolute configurations of both the enantiomers of the title compo
und, C15H18BrNO2S2, have been determined. As expected, the molecular d
imensions of both forms are insignificantly different. The phenacyl an
d dithiocarbamate fragments are planar and approximately perpendicular
to one another. The short N-C(=S) bond length [1.330 (7) Angstrom] in
dicates involvement of the N-atom lone pair in the thiocarbonyl pi sys
tem.
