title: 1-Benzoyl-N-phenyl-cyclo-propane-carboxamide.
abstract: The title compound, C(17)H(15)NO(2), was synthesized by reaction of 1,2-dibromo-ethane with 1-benzoyl-N-phenyl-cyclo-propane-carboxamide and K(2)CO(3) in dimethyl-formamide. The mol-ecule exhibits a V-shaped conformation in the crystal with a dihedral angle of 88.7 (3)° between the two benzene rings. Pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into dimers about centres of inversion.
