4-Chlorobenzoyl chloride (5.4 mmol) in CHCl3 was treated with 3-methylaniline (21.6 mmol) under a nitrogen atmosphere at reflux for 3 h. Upon cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted with CHCl3 and washed consecutively with aq 1 M HCl and saturated aq NaHCO3. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Crystallization of the residue from CHCl3 afforded the title compound (81%) as colourless blocks.

H atoms were located in a difference map but those bonded to C were geometrically positioned and refined using a riding model with fixed individual displacement parameters [U(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) or U(H) = 1.5 Ueq(Cmethyl)] and C—H(aromatic) = 0.95Å or C—H(methyl) = 0.98 Å, respectively. The H atom bonded to N was refined isotropically, N-H 0.88 (3) Å.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The benzanilide core is present in compounds with such a wide range of biological activities that it has been called a privileged structure. N-Substituted benzamides are well known anticancer compounds and the mechanism of action for N-substituted benzamide-induced apoptosis has been studied, using declopramide as a lead compound (Olsson et al., 2002). N-Substituted benzamides inhibit the activity of nuclear factor- B and nuclear factor of activated T cells activity while inducing activator protein 1 activity in T lymphocytes (Lindgren et al., 2001). Various N-substituted benzamides exhibit potent antiemetic activity (Vega-Noverola et al., 1989), while heterocyclic analogs of benzanilide derivatives are potassium channel activators (Calderone et al., 2006). o-Aryloxylation of N-substituted benzamides induced by the copper(II)/trimethylamine N-oxide system has been studied. N-Alkylated 2-nitrobenzamides are intermediates in the synthesis of dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepines (Zhichkin et al., 2007) and N-Acyl-2-nitrobenzamides are precursors of 2,3-disubstitued 3H-quinazoline-4-ones (Beccalli et al., 2005). A one-pot conversion of 2-nitro-n-arylbenzamides to 2,3-dihydro-1H-quinazoline-4-ones has also been reported (Yoo et al., 2005). As part of our work on the structure of benzanilides and related compounds, we report here the structure of the title 4-chlorobenzamide derivative, I, Fig 1.
The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 11.29 (15) °. The crystal packing is stabilized by N—H···O hydrogen bonds linking the molecules to chains running along the c axis.
