Crystal and molecular structure of meso-2,6-dibromoheptanedioic acid (meso-2,6-dibromopimelic acid)

The molecular structure of the title compound, C7H10Br2O4, confirms the meso (2R,6S) configuration. In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of O—H...O=C hydrogen bonds between their terminal carboxyl groups in an R22(8) motif, forming extended chains that propagate parallel to the c axis.
