The title complex, [Ti(C(5)H(5))(C(2)H(6)N)(2)Cl], exhibits two nearly planar dimethylamide groups oriented approximately perpendicular to each other. The Ti-->cyclopentadienyl centroid vector lies nearly in the plane of one of the dimethylamide groups. Long-range contacts between Ti-Cl and cyclopentadienyl H-C groups give rise to geometric ordering in the extended solid.
