Fun, H.-K.Arshad, S.Chandrakantha, B.Isloor, A.M.Shetty, P.2026-02-052011Acta Crystallographica Section E: Structure Reports Online, 2011, 67, 7, pp. o1785-16005368https://doi.org/10.1107/S1600536811023683https://idr.nitk.ac.in/handle/123456789/27225The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C <inf>5</inf>H <inf>2</inf>C <inf>l2</inf>N <inf>2</inf>O <inf>2</inf>, consists of two crystallographically independent mol-ecules. The pyridine ring in each mol-ecule is essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.004 (4) and 0.007 (4) Å. Short Cl?O [3.09 (3) and 3.13 (4) Å] and Cl?Cl [3.38 (12) Å] contacts were observed. No significant inter-molecular inter-actions were observed in the crystal packing. © Fun et al. 2011.
