In the title molecule, C18H13BrO2, the anthracene unit forms an angle of 46.91 (2)° with the mean plane of the methyl acrylate Pre-Rolls moiety.In the crystal, the molecules arrange themselves into strands parallel to [010] and, due to the crystal symmetry, there are eight strands crossing the unit cell.In each strand, molecules form short C—H.

O and C—H.π contacts and have their anthracene groups parallel to each other.Neighboring strands, related by a c-glide operation, are connected via C—H.O interactions and form a layer parallel to (100).

The arrangement of the acrylate and anthracene groups in the crystal do click here not allow for [2 + 2] or [4 + 4] cycloaddition.
