Abstract: The 150 K structure of the title compound, C₂₀H₂₈Br₂N₈, has been shown to exhibit liquid-crystal alignment in the gross array, enhanced by the presence of intermolecular BrBr interactions. The asymmetric unit consists of one-half of a molecule, the remainder being generated via a crystallographic inversion centre located at the centre of the benzene ring.
