Methyl 3,5-dibromo-4-methylbenzoate

In the title compound, C9H8Br2O2, the molecule 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 carboxylate substituent. In the crystal structure, weak C—H...Br hydrogen bonds and weak intermolecular O...Br contacts [3.095 (2) Å], link adjacent molecules into layers parallel to (102). Additional weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond interactions stack the layers above and below the molecular plane and down the a axis.
