Ethyl (Z)-2-chloro-2-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)hydrazin-1-ylidene]acetate

Abstract

The molecule of the title compound, C11H13ClN2O3, is planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0587 Å for non-H atoms) and adopts a Z conformation about the C=N double bond. In the crystal, molecules are linked via an N-H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming zigzag chains propagating along [010]. These chains are consolidated by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
