The structure of the title compound, C9H8BrN5.2CH3OH, exhibits marked distortion in its conformation about the common axis of the phenyl and triazine rings, which may arise from steric hindrance between the Br atom and the π electrons of the triazine ring. An extensive network of hydrogen bonds maintains the crystal structure which has one analogue molecule and two methanol solvent molecules per asymmetric unit.
