In the molecule of the title compound, [ZnBr2(C10H8N2)(C2H6OS)], the ZnII atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal configuration by two N atoms from one 2,2′-bipyridine, one O atom from one dimethylsulfoxide molecule and two Br atoms. Intermolecular π–π stacking between parallel pyridine rings [face-to-face distance 3.32 (4) Å] and C—HBr and C—HO hydrogen-bonding interactions are present in the crystal structure.
