title: 2-(7-Hydr-oxy-2-naphth-yloxy)-N-(6-methyl-2-pyrid-yl)acetamide.
abstract: In the title compound, C(18)H(16)N(2)O(3), the dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the pyridyl ring is 18.1 (8)°. The mol-ecules are inter-connected via C-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Inversion-related mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into cyclic centrosymmetric R(2) (2)(22) dimers. Intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding produces an S(5) ring motif. The crystal structure is further stabilized by weak C-H-π inter-actions.
