title: N-[4-(4-Nitro-phen-oxy)phen-yl]propionamide.
abstract: The title compound, C(15)H(14)N(2)O(4), is an important inter-mediate for the synthesis of thermotropic liquid crystals. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 84.29 (4)°. An N-H⋯O hydrogen bond connects the mol-ecules into chains running along the b axis. In addition, the crystal packing is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
