title: N-(3-Chloro-phen-yl)-3-methyl-benzamide hemihydrate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO·0.5H(2)O, the N-H bond is in an anti conformation to the C=O bond. The two aromatic rings make a dihedral angle of 49.5 (1)°. The water mol-ecule lies on a twofold rotation axis. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network.
