In the title compound, C21H14Br2NO2+·CF3O3S, adjacent cations are oriented either parallel or antiparallel. Together with the CF3O3S anions, the anti­parallel-oriented cations form layers in which the ions are linked via a network of C—H...O (O from the anions) and π–π inter­actions (between the benzene rings). These layers, in turn, are linked via a network of five multidirectional π–π inter­actions between the acridine rings, and the crystal structure is stabilized by electrostatic inter­actions between the ions. The acridine and independent benzene rings are mutually oriented at an angle of 35.9 (3)°.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Cg represents the centre of gravity of the rings, as follows: Cg1 ring C9/C11/C12/N10/C14/C13, Cg2 ring C1–C4/C12/C11, Cg3 ring C5–C8/C13/C14 and Cg4 ring C18–C23.

Cg···Cg is the distance between ring centroids. The dihedral angle is that between the planes of CgI and CgJ. The interplanar distance is the perpendicular distance of CgI from ring J. Offset is the perpendicular distance of ring I from ring J.
