The title compound, C15H12ClNO, is a functionalized 1,2-benzoxazole with a chloro(phenyl)methyl substituent. The molecule is V-shaped, the dihedral angle between the mean plane of the 1,2-benzoxazole system [maximum deviation = 0.023 (3) Å for the N atom] and the phenyl ring being 70.33 (14)°. There are no hydrogen-bonding interactions in the which is stabilized by van der Waals interactions only.

The compound was synthesized following the published procedure (Veerareddy et al., 2011).
All the H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93Å (aromatic), 0.98Å (methine) and 0.96Å (methyl), and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H )= 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Benzisoxazole is an aromatic organic compound with a molecular formula C7H5NO containing a benzene-fused isoxazole ring structure. Benzisoxazole is primarily used in industry and research. Being a heterocyclic compound, benzisoxazole finds use in research as a starting material for the synthesis of larger, usually bioactive structures. Isoxazole and benzisoxazole are important classes of nitrogen-oxygen containing heterocycles. They have extensive applications as structural units of various biologically important molecules and as useful intermediates in medicinal chemistry. Among them, 3–substituted–1,2–benzisoxazole and their derivatives are emerging as potential antipsychotic compounds. For example, 1,2–benzisoxazole–3–methanesulfonamide, also known as zonisamide, is an efficient antiseizure agent. It has been reported that it blocks the repetitive firing of voltage–sensitive sodium channels and reduces voltage–sensitive T–type calcium currents (Veerareddy et al., 2011).
In molecular structure of the title functionalized 1,2-benzoxazole compound, (I), is illustrated in Fig. 1. The bond length and angles are in agreement with those found for closely related structures, for example, 6-tert-butyl-4,5-dichloro-3-ethyl-4,5-dihydro-2,1-benzoisoxazole (II) [Atovmyan & Aliev, 1994], 3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-4,6-dinitrobenzo[d]isoxazole (III) [Korlyukov et al., 2003], and N-Phenyl-4-(8-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,2-benzoxazolo- [4,5-d]thiazol-2-yl)-piperidine-1-carboxamide (IV) [Hu et al., 2009]. The widening of the exocyclic angle C10—C9—C3 [113.4 (2)°] from the normal value of 109° may be due to repulsion between neighbouring H atoms [H9··· H11 = 2.2495 (1) Å]. The exocyclic angles C9—C3—C3a [132.1 (2)°] and C3—C3a—C4 [138.2 (2)°] deviate significantly from the normal value of 120° and this may be due to the intramolecular non-bonded interactions between the chlorine atom and H-atom H4 at C10 [Cl··· H4 = 3.1169 (7) Å]. The isoxazole ring (O1,N2,C3,C3a,C7a) is planar [max. deviation 0.007 (3) Å], with the chloro(phenyl)methyl substituent being nearly normal to the plane of the five membered ring [N2-C3-C9-C10 = 100.1 (3)°], similar to the situation in compound (II) (Atovmyan & Aliev, 1994). The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the 1,2-benzoxazole [max. deviation 0.023 (3) Å] and the phenyl ring (C10-C15) is 70.33 (14)°.
Crystal packing of compound (I) is illustrated in Fig. 2. There are no significant non-bonded interactions present and the crystal structure is stabilized by van der Waals interactions only.
