In my case, the open braces were part of LaTeX constructs, so I could work around the problem by fooling the org latex exporter like so: #+BEGIN_LaTeX \someconstruct{ %} dummy closing brace in comment #+END_LaTeX foo bar #+BEGIN_LaTeX } % the real closing brace #+END_LaTeX (One could also use \begin{env}/\end{end} in most cases, but there are still some cases where that option is not available, afaik). That will not work as well for you. But I don't understand why you need open braces in your headlines at all - can't you just get rid of them? Thanks, Nick
