title: 2-Bromo-5-iodo-1,3-dimethyl-benzene.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(8)H(6)BrI, the H atoms of methyl groups are disordered; site-occupation factors were fixed at 0.50. The non-H atoms all lie on a crystallographic mirror plane. Weak intra-molecular C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds result in the formation of two non-planar five-membered rings.
