Abstract: The structure of the centrosymmetric title compound, C₈H₆Cl₂N₂O₂·2C₃H₇NO, shows that the hydroximoyl chloride substituent has an essentially planar arrangement and the dihedral angle between this plane and the benzene plane is 18.3  (4)°. The hydroximoyl chloride group has a cis configuration. The packing can be described as a polymeric arrangement of molecules linked through O-HO hydrogen bonds.
