Crystal Structure of 1,2,3-Tribromoindane, C₉H₇Br₃

The title compound (C₉H₇Br₃) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with Z=2; R = 0.043 for 1518 observed reflections. The average Br-C distance is 1.974Å, Br-C-C angle is 110.0°. The five-membered ring adopts a somewhat flattened structure. The atoms C1 and C3 have opposite configurations. The whole molecule has approximate (non-crystallographic) C_s-symmetry.

Keywords: 1,2,3-tribromoindane, crystal structure
