Abstract

In the title compound, C15H13Cl2NO2, which was obtained by a condensation reaction of 2,5-dimeth-oxy-aniline and 2,4-dichloro-benzaldehyde, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 51.94 (2)°. The 2,5-dimeth-oxy-phenyl and 2,4-dichloro-phenyl groups are attached to the ends of the N=C group in an E conformation. Intra-molecular C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯N contacts are observed. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the b axis.
