Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (E)-1-[2,2-di-chloro-1-(4-methyl-phen-yl)ethen-yl]-2-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)diazene.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(16)H(14)Cl(2)N(2)O, comprises two similar mol-ecules, A and B, in which the dihedral angles between the two aromatic rings are 70.1†(3) and 73.2†(2)°, respectively. The crystal structure features short C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯O contacts and C-H⋯π and van der Waals inter-actions. The title compound was refined as a two-component non-merohedral twin, BASF 0.1076†(5). The Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots show that H⋯H (38.2% for mol-ecule A; 36.0% for mol-ecule B), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (24.6% for mol-ecule A; 26.7% for mol-ecule B) and C⋯H/H⋯C (20.0% for mol-ecule A; 20.2% for mol-ecule B) inter-actions are the most important contributors to the crystal packing.
