4-Formyl-2-nitro­phenyl 4-bromo­benzoate

In the title compound, C₁₄H₈BrNO₅, the benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 62.90 (7)°. The central ester group is twisted away from the nitro-substituted and bromo-substituted rings by 71.67 (7) and 8.78 (15)°, respectively. The nitro group forms a dihedral angle of 7.77 (16)° with the benzene ring to which it is attached. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H...O inter­actions, forming C(12) chains which run along [001]. Halogen–halogen inter­actions [Br...Br = 3.523 (3) Å] within the chains stabilized by C—H...O inter­actions are observed.
