Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C8H7Br2NO2·C9H9Br2NO2, the 1,2-dibromo-4,5-dimethyl-3-nitro­benzene and 1,2-dibromo-4,5,6-trimethyl-3-nitro­benzene mol­ecules occupy the same crystallographic position, such that the aromatic H atom of the former compound is superimposed on the methyl group of the latter. The structure is thus best modelled by a 50:50 disorder of the two compounds. All non-H atoms are located on a mirror plane except the O atoms of the nitro group.
