In the title crystals, C<sub>8</sub>H<sub>5</sub>Br<sub>2</sub>N, which are isomorphous, the steric bulk of the methyl group causes neighboring mol-ecules to become mutually inclined. This prevents the formation of planar or nearly planar sheets, which were observed in the tri-chloro and tri-bromo analogs. Instead of CN/NC⋯Br contacts, tetra-meric Br⋯Br contacts are observed. These contacts form tetra-gonally puckered sheets parallel to (001). The CN/NC and methyl groups are grouped at the peaks ...[more]
