title: Crystal structure of N-[(2-hy-droxy-naphthalen-1-yl)(4-methyl-phen-yl)meth-yl]acetamide.
abstract: In the title mol-ecule, C20H19NO2, the naphthalene ring system subtends a dihedral angle of 82.50 (7)° with the benzene ring and an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond closes an S(6) ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which generate C(8) chains propagating in the [010] direction. The crystal structure also features weak π-π inter-actions [centroid-centroid separation = 3.7246 (10) Å].
