✦ Synopsis
The title novel oxazole derivative, C 8 H 9 N 2 O 3 Br, is formed by displacement of one of the Br atoms in 5,6-dibromo-2,3dihydro-2-methylimidazo[2,1-b]oxazole using metalation followed by reaction with methylcyanoformate. The cyclic moiety in the molecule is slightly bent from a planar con®guration. The shortened distance between the Br atom and oxygen of the carbonyl group of a neighboring molecule is the only signi®cant intermolecular interaction.
