title: Methyl 4-[(5-chloro-pyrimidin-2-yl)carbamo-yl]benzoate.
abstract: Mol-ecules of the title compound, C(13)H(10)ClN(3)O(3), form centrosymmetric dimers via inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds generating an R(2) (2)(8) motif. The dimers are further connected through an O⋯Cl-C halogen bond [O⋯Cl = 3.233 (1) Å and O⋯Cl-C = 167.33 (1)°] into a chain along [110]. The secondary amide group adopts a cis conformation. Weak C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds among the methyl benzoate and pyrimidyl rings are also observed in the crystal structure.
