Methyl 3,5-dibromo-4-methyl-benzoate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(9)H(8)Br(2)O(2), the mol-ecule is essentially planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0652?Å from the mean plane through all non-H atoms and a dihedral angle of 7.1?(2)° between the benzene ring plane and the carboxyl-ate substituent. In the crystal structure, weak C-H?Br hydrogen bonds and weak inter-molecular O?Br contacts [3.095?(2)?Å], link adjacent mol-ecules into layers parallel to (102). Additional weak inter-molecular C-H?O hydrogen bond inter-actions stack the layers above and below the mol-ecular plane and down the a axis.
