title: 2,2-Diphenyl-4-(piperidin-1-yl)butanamide.
abstract: In the title compound, C(21)H(26)N(2)O, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 81.1 (9)°. The piperidine ring is in a chair conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-H⋯N and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions.
