Summary:The title compound, C8H12Br2O4, has crystallographic inversion symmetry. Mol­ecules adopt a pleated conformation, the OCH2—CH2CH2 torsion angles of the butane­diol residue being close to 60 and −60°. The mol­ecular packing is stabilized by a network of weak inter­molecular hydrogen bonds between the methyl­ene and the carbonyl groups of the bromo­acetate units. Each mol­ecule inter­acts with its four closest neighbours.
