description

The title compound, C12H7Br3O, is the third well characterized of a total of 209 different brominated di­phenyl ethers. The bromine-substituted rings pack in the crystal in a common plane with the same ring from symmetry-related neighbouring mol­ecules. The short Br⋯Br contact distance [3.519 (2) A], together with a pair of considerably longer Br⋯Br contact distances [3.966 (2) A], may be part of a model describing this packing.
