Abstract: In the title compound, [Nb(CH₃O)₂(C₅H₇O₂)Cl₂], a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry is observed around the Nb^V atom with Nb-O distances in the range of 1.8254 (16)-2.0892 (16) Å and Nb-Cl distances of 2.3997 (14) and 2.4023 (12) Å. The O-Nb-O angles vary between 81.36 (7) and 172.65 (7) °, while the trans Cl-Nb-Cl angle is 167.34 (2)°. There are no hydrogen bonds observed.
