2-Chloro-ethyl 4-nitro-benzoate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(9)H(8)ClNO(4), crystallizes with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each mol-ecule, the carboxyl-ate group is nearly coplanar with the benzene ring, forming dihedral angles of 2.4?(1) and 4.9?(1)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked through weak C-H?O and C-H?Cl hydrogen bonds. A short O?N contact of 2.7660?(19)?Å occurs between the nitro groups of adjacent mol-ecules.
