3‐[(3,4,5‐Tribromo‐1H‐pyrrol‐2‐ylcarbon­yl)amino]propanoic acid

The title compound, C8H7Br3N2O3, was synthesized by condensation of β-alanine methyl ester with 3,4,5-tribromo-2-trichloro­acetyl­pyrrole at room temperature, followed by saponification and acidification. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak O—H⋯Br hydrogen-bond inter­actions link the mol­ecules into extended ribbons parallel to the c axis.
