The title compound was purchased from the Dr. Ehrenstorfer GmbH Company. X-ray quality single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of a solution of the title compound in dichloromethane at room temperature.
All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with d(C–H) = 0.94 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic. d(C–H) = 0.98 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C) for methylene, and d(C–H) = 0.97 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl protons.

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. |

Benzoximate (IUPAC name: (3-chloro-2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)(ethoxyimino)methyl benzoate) is an acaricide widely used in agriculture targeting ticks and mites (Kim et al., 2007). However, until now its crystal structure has not been reported.
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the two aromatic rings are almost perpendicular to each other with the dihedral angle between them being 85.72 (9)°. Of the two methoxy methyl groups, one (C7) is almost perpendicular to the benzene ring plane [torsion angle C1–C6–O1–C7 = 84.0 (4) °] whereas the other (C8) is nearly parallel to it [torsion angle C3–C4–O2–C8 = 3.8 (5) °]. All the bond distances and bond angles within the molecule agree with values reported in the Cambridge Structural Database (Allen, 2002).
In the crystal, C17—H17···O1 and C18—H18···Cl1 hydrogen bonds generate R22(8) rings (Bernstein et al., 1995). Additional C3—H3···O5 hydrogen bonds and C–H···π contacts, Table 1, further link the molecules into a three dimensional network.
