title: Methyl N-phenyl-succinamate.
abstract: In the structure of the title compound, C(11)H(13)NO(3), the conformations of the N-H and C=O bonds in the amide fragment are trans to each other. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a 2(1) helical chain that propagates along the c axis through N-H⋯O inter-actions.
