Abstract: The title molecule, C₁₄H₈Cl₂N₂O₂, is a trans-azobenzene which has a crystallographic inversion center at the mid-point of the N=N bond [N=N = 1.228 (4) Å]. There are neither hydrogen bonds nor - interactions between the aromatic rings, and the crystal structure is stabilized by van der Waals interactions.
