title: (3E,5E)-1-Acryloyl-3,5-bis-(2-chloro-benzyl-idene)piperidin-4-one.
abstract: In the title compound, C(22)H(17)Cl(2)NO(2), the asymmetric unit consists of two crystallographically independent mol-ecules and each piperidinone ring adopts an envelope conformation. The dihedral angles between the two chloro-benzene rings are 24.81 (10) and 19.15 (8)° in the two mol-ecules. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected via weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds forming layers perpendicular to the a axis.
