In the title compound, C(23)H(15)BrO(3), the anthracene ring system is essentially planar [maximum deviation = 0.29 (2) Å] and makes a dihedral angle of 5.74 (8)° with the mean plane of the bromo-substituted benzene ring. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(9) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to the ac plane. π-π stacking inter-actions are observed between benzene rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.5949 (14) and 3.5960 (13) Å].
