Description
Summary:The title compound, C15H19ClO3, is bent with a dihedral angle of 72.02 (9)° between the mean planes of the benzene ring and a group encompassing the ester functionality (O=C—O—C). In the crystal, molecules related by inversion symmetry are connected by weak C—H...O interactions into infinite chains. These interactions involve H atoms from a methyl group of the dimethyl residue and the O atoms of the ketone on one side of a molecule; on the other side there are interactions between H atoms of the benzene ring and the carbonyl O atoms of the ester functionality. There are no directional interactions between the chains.
