Description
Summary:In the title compound, C9H9ClN2, a substituted imidazoline, the six- and five-membered rings are twisted from each other, making a dihedral angle of 17.07 (5)°. In the crystal structure, a short Cl...Cl [3.3540 (3) Å] interaction is observed. Neighbouring molecules are linked together by intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds into a one-dimensional infinite chain along the [101] direction and short Cl...Cl contacts link the chains into a three-dimensional network. There is also a significant π-stacking interaction between the planar sections of the six- and five-membered rings.
