Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₁Cl₂NO₂S, the conformations of the N-C bond in the C-SO₂-NH-C segment are trans and gauche with respect to the S=O bonds. The C-S(O₂)-N(H)-C torsion angle is 74.8 (4)°, indicating that the molecule is bent at the S atom. In the crystal structure, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N-HO hydrogen bonds occur. An intramolecular N-HCl interaction is also present.
