title: 4-Nitro-benzyl 2-bromo-acetate.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(9)H(8)BrNO(4), the acetate group is close to planar [maximum deviation = 0.042 (3) Å] and is oriented at a dihedral angle of 73.24 (3)° with respect to the aromatic ring. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network, forming R(2) (2)(10) ring motifs.
