In the title compound, C7H7Cl2N, a halogenated derivative of 2,6-lutidine, the C—Cl vectors of the chloromethyl groups point at opposite sides of the aromatic plane to each other. A weak dispersive Cl...Cl contact [3.4342 (3) Å] connects the molecules into a chain along the [101] direction. A π–π interaction with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.7481 (5) Å is also observed.
