3-Methyl-N-(4-methylphenyl)benzamide

In the title compound, C15H15NO, the two aromatic rings make a dihedral angle of 70.06 (3)°, while the central amide core –NH—C(=O)– is twisted by 30.24 (4) and 40.16 (3)° out of the planes...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, C15H15NO, the two aromatic rings make a dihedral angle of 70.06 (3)°, while the central amide core –NH—C(=O)– is twisted by 30.24 (4) and 40.16 (3)° out of the planes of the 3-methyphenyl and 4-methyphenyl rings, respectively. The methyl groups are disordered over two equally occupied positions. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into infinite chains running along the a axis.
