1,6-Dibromonaphthalen-2-ol methanol monosolvate

Abstract

The naphthol-containing molecule of the title compound, C10H6Br2O·CH3OH, crystallized as a methanol monosolvate and is planar to within 0.069 (1) Å for all non-H atoms. In the crystal, molecules are linked by two pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds, involving the methanol molecule, forming dimer-like arrangements. The crystal structure is further stabilized by π–π stacking [centroid–centroid distance = 3.676 (2) Å] and Br...Br interactions [3.480 (4) and 3.786 (1) Å], forming a three-dimensional structure.
