Abstract
The naphthol-containing mol-ecule 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, mol-ecules are linked by two pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, involving the methanol mol-ecule, forming dimer-like arrangements. The crystal structure is further stabilized by π-π stacking [centroid-centroid distance = 3.676 (2) Å] and Br⋯Br inter-actions [3.480 (4) and 3.786 (1) Å], forming a three-dimensional structure.
