2,4-Dichloro-N-(1,3-thia-zol-2-yl)benzamide.

In the mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(10)H(6)Cl(2)N(2)OS, the dihedral angle between the benzene plane and the plane defined by the amide functionality is 8.6 (1)°, while the thia-zole ring plane is twisted with respect to the amide plane by 68.71 (5)°. In the crystal, pairs of inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen-bond inter-actions connect the mol-ecules into inversion dimers. π-π inter-actions are also observed between neighbouring thia-zole and phen-yl rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.5905 (13) Å] and a weak C-H⋯π interaction also occurs.
