The title compound, C(13)H(9)BrF(3)N(5)O, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The pyrimidine rings of the mol-ecules are planar [maximum deviations 0.053 (3) and 0.012 (3) Å], while the triazine rings adopt flattened half-boat conformations with the p-bromo-phenyl rings in the flagpole positions. The crystal packing is stabilized by a three-dimensional network of inter-molecular N-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and N-H⋯F hydrogen bonds.
