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.
