title: 2-Chloro-N-(2,4-dichloro-phen-yl)-acetamide.
abstract: The structure of the title compound, C(8)H(6)Cl(3)NO, contains two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each independent mol-ecule, the conformation of the N-H bond is almost syn to the ortho-chloro substituent and the conformation of the C=O bond is anti to the N-H bond. The mol-ecules in the crystal structure are linked into supra-molecular chains through N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding along the a axis.
