In the crystal structure of the title compound, C 8 H 7 Br 2 NO 2 ·C 9 H 9 Br 2 NO 2 , the 1,2‐dibromo‐4,5‐dimethyl‐3‐nitrobenzene and 1,2‐dibromo‐4,5,6‐trimethyl‐3‐nitrobenzene molecules occupy the same crystallographic position, such that the aromatic H atom of the former compound is superimposed on the methyl group of the latter. The structure is thus best modelled by a 50:50 disorder of the two compounds. All non‐H atoms are located on a mirror plane except the O atoms of the nitro group.
