title: N-(4-Methyl-phen-yl)benzamide.
abstract: The structure of the title compound, C(14)H(13)NO, resembles those of N-(2-chloro-phen-yl)benzamide, 2-chloro-N-phenyl-benzamide, N-(2,3-dichloro-phen-yl)benzamide, N-(3,4-dichloro-phen-yl)benzamide and 2-chloro-N-(2-chloro-phen-yl)benzamide with similar bond parameters. The benzene and methylphenyl rings have a dihedral angle of 63.41 (5)°, while the amide group makes a dihedral angle of 20.5 (1)° with the benzene ring. The mol-ecules are linked into chains in the b-axis direction by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
