3,5-Dibromobenzonitrile

Molecules of the title compound (I), C7H3Br2N, lie on a crystallographic mirror plane that bisects the benzene ring and the cyano group. In the crystal, no C[triple-bond]N...Br or Br...Br short contacts are observed. Head-to-tail C(7) chains form based on weak hydrogen bonding between the the para H...
