title: Methyl N-(2,3-dichloro-phen-yl)succinamate.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(11)H(11)Cl(2)NO(3), contains two independent mol-ecules. In both the molecules, the H atoms of the adjacent -CH(2) groups of the acid segments orient themselves away from the amide O and the carbonyl O atoms. The C=O and O-CH(3) bonds of the ester group are in syn positions with respect to each other. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked into infinite chains through inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
