The title compound, C 16 H 10 S 2 , is a further example of a 3,3′‐bridged 2,2′‐dithiophene. As in comparable members of this series of compounds, the monoatomic 3,3′‐bridge constrains the tricyclic heterocyclic ring system to be essentially planar with, in this case, an S—C—C—S torsion angle of 2.3 (4)°.
