3-(2-Chloroanilino)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one

Abstract

In the molecule of the title compound, C14H10ClNO2, the essentially planar phthalide group is oriented at a dihedral angle of 59.43 (4)degrees with respect to the substituted aromatic ring. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O and N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, generating R-4(4)(21) ring motifs to form a three-dimensional network.
