Abstract: The title compound, C₁₇H₁₆Cl₂N₂, adopts a `vault' conformation. The molecules are linked by a pair of C-HN hydrogen bonds into a centrosymmetric dimer with an R₂²(18) ring. These dimers are linked by a weak centrosymmetric - interaction into a chain along the [001] direction, and these chains are connected by van der Waals interactions, resulting in a three-dimensional network structure.
