title: Bis(2,6-dimethyl-pyridinium) dibromo-iodate bromide.
abstract: In the title salt, 2C(7)H(10)N(+)·IBr(2) (-)·Br(-), each of the anions, viz. [IBr(2)](-) and Br(-), lie on a twofold axis. The IBr(2) (-) anion is almost linear, with a Br-I-Br angle of 178.25 (3)°. The cation is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0067 Å). In the crystal, each Br(-) anion links two cations via N-H⋯Br⋯H-N hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
