title: N-(2,5-Dimethyl-phen-yl)-2-methyl-benzamide.
abstract: In the title compound, C(16)H(17)NO, the two aromatic rings are almost coplanar, making a dihedral angle of 1.9 (2)°. The amide group makes dihedral angles of 48.0 (3) and 48.6 (3)° with the 2-methyl-phenyl and the 2,5-dimethyl-phenyl rings, respectively. Inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains running along the a axis of the crystal.
