Abstract
The X-ray crystal structure of the compound BiBr2Ph comprises one-dime nsional chains in which the bismuth centres are linked through bromine bridges: these chains form a two-dimensional layer as a result of pi- pi interactions between interleaved phenyl groups in adjacent chains. All atoms lie in special positions, on mirror planes or two-fold rotat ion axes.
