title: 1-Bromo-2,4,6-tricyclo-hexyl-benzene.
abstract: The title compound, C(24)H(25)Br, packs efficiently in the crystal structure with no solvent-accessible voids and several inter-molecular H⋯H contacts approximating the sum of the van der Waals radii. The mol-ecule is quite crowded, with intra-molecular Br⋯H and C⋯H contacts ca 0.38 and 0.30 Å, respectively, less than the sum of the corresponding van der Waals radii. All cyclo-hexyl rings adopt chair conformations with the 'seat' of the chair inclined at approximately 57-81° to the mean plane of the benzene ring, while those ortho to bromine have their centroids displaced in opposite directions from this plane.
