  • Disorder in atomic positions, specifically for the bromine atom, was modeled.
  • Main Results:

    • The crystal structure of C13H6BrN3O8 was successfully determined.
    • Significant dihedral angles were observed: 80.90° between benzene rings, 3.2° between the ester and benzene rings, and 82.8° between the ester and picryl rings.
    • The bromine atom exhibited positional disorder with a site occupancy of 0.48(4) for the minor component.
    • C-H⋯O interactions were identified as the primary force driving the formation of a 3D supramolecular network.

    Conclusions:

    • The crystal structure of this benzoate derivative reveals a non-planar conformation due to specific dihedral angles.
    • The observed disorder of the bromine atom and the prevalence of C-H⋯O interactions dictate the compound's solid-state architecture.
    • The findings provide fundamental insights into the structure-property relationships of complex organic molecules.
