N-(4-Hydr-oxy-3-methoxy-benz-yl)benzamide.

ABSTRACT: In the mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(15)H(15)NO(3), the two benzene rings are twisted with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 75.11?(10)°. In the amide fragment, the C=O and C-N bond distances are 1.248?(3) and 1.321?(3)?Å, respectively, indicating electron delocalization. A partially ovelapped arrangement between parallel hydroxy-methoxy-benzene rings is observed in the crystal structure, and the face-to-face distance of 3.531?(16)?Å suggests the existence of weak ?-? stacking. N-H?O and O-H?O hydrogen bonding is also present in the crystal structure.
