In the title compound, C15H18ClNO2, the amide group is coplanar with the chlorophenyl group, making a dihedral angle of 1.71 (12)°. The cyclopentanone ring adopts a twist conformation. A weak intramolecular C-H...O hydrogen bond is observed. Molecules are linked into cyclic centrosymmetric dimers by paired N-H...O hydrogen bonds.
