N-(2,6-Dichloro-phen-yl)benzamide.

ABSTRACT: The conformation of the N-H and C=O bonds in the structure of the title compound (N26DCPBA), C(13)H(9)Cl(2)NO, are anti to each other, similar to that observed in N-phenyl-benzamide (NPBA), N-(2-chloro-phen-yl)benzamide (N2CPBA), N-(2,3-dichloro-phen-yl)benzamide (N23DCPBA) and other benzanilides. The asymmetric unit of N26DCPBA contains two mol-ecules. The bond parameters in N26DCPBA are similar to those in NPBA, N2CPBA, N23DCPBA and other benzanilides. The amide group, -NHCO-, makes a dihedral angle of 30.8?(1)° with the benzoyl ring in the first mol-ecule and 35.1?(2)° in the second mol-ecule of the asymmetric unit. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings (benzoyl and aniline) is 56.8?(1)° in the first mol-ecule and 59.1?(1)° in the second mol-ecule. N-H?O hydrogen bonds give rise to infinite chains running along the a axis of the crystal structure.
