title: Ethyl 6-chloro-2-oxo-4-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-quinoline-3-carboxyl-ate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(18)H(14)ClNO(3), the dihydro-quinolin-2-one ring system is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.033 Å). The carboxyl-ate plane and the phenyl group are twisted away from the dihydro-quinolin-2-one ring system by 50.3 (1) and 64.9 (1)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, inversion-related mol-ecules form R(2) (2)(8) dimers via pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
