Abstract: In the title salt, 2C₇H₁₀N⁺·IBr₂^-·Br^-, each of the anions, viz. [IBr₂]^- and Br^-, lie on a twofold axis. The IBr₂^- 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-HBrH-N hydrogen-bonding interactions.
