There are three independent molecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C12H15Br3O3, two of which have approximate trigonal symmetry, the third being conformationally different as it adopts near mirror symmetry. The crystal structure features C—HBr interactions, a weak C—HO hydrogen bond, π–π interactions [minimum ring centroid separation = 3.4927 (18) Å] and a short BrBr contact [3.5894 (5) Å], resulting in a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
