Dimethoxy-2,3-dimethylbenzene was brominated under radical conditions to give the title compound, C 10 H 11 Br 3 O 4 . The bond lengths and angles are generally within the normal ranges. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak intermolecular C-HÁ Á ÁO and C-HÁ Á ÁBr hydrogen bonds.
In the title compound, C 8 H 8 Br 2 , the molecules are located on inversion centres and are connected through weak intermolecular BrÁ Á ÁBr interactions into layers parallel to the (102) plane.
The crystal structure of the title compound, C 23 H 28 Br 4 O 6 , confirms that it consists of two hexasubstituted aromatic units linked by a central methylene group. The molecule lies on a crystallographic twofold axis that passes through the methylene bridging atom. Examination of the extended str
