In the title compound (systematic name: N,N′-diphenyloctanediamide), C20H24N2O2, the two phenyl rings make an interplanar angle of 76.5 (2)°. The is stabilized by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which link the molecules into chains running along the b axis. The crystal studied was non-merohedrally twinned, the fractional contribution of the minor twin component being 0.203 (2).

Suberic acid (0.3 mol) was heated with thionyl chloride (1.2 mol) at 120°C for 4 hours. The acid chloride obtained was treated with aniline (0.6 mol). The product obtained was added to crushed ice to obtain the white precipitate. It was thoroughly washed with water and then with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and washed again with water. It was then given a wash with 2 N HCl. It was again washed with water, filtered, dried and recrystallised to constant point (186-188°C) from ethanol-Tetrahydrofuran mixture in the ratio 1:4.
Plate like colourless single crystals of the title compound used in X-ray diffraction studies were obtained by a slow evaporation of its solution at room temperature.
The crystal used for data collection was a non-merohedral twin. The
was found to be a twofold axis about the [1 0 4] direction. The final was made using the HKLF4 format of the HKL file, and using the INS file having the twin matrix (-1 0 0 / 0 -1 0 / 0.5 0 1) in the TWIN instruction. The fractional contribution of the minor twin component refined to 0.203 (2). The C-bounded hydrogen atoms were positioned with idealized geometry using a riding model with C–H = 0.93 Å or 0.97 Å. Amide H atoms were refined with N–H distance restrained to 0.85 (3) Å. The Uiso(H) values were set at 1.2Ueq(C, N).The amide moiety is an important constituent of many biologically significant compounds. As a part of studying the effect of ring and side chain substitutions on the structures of this class of compounds (Gowda et al., 2007; 2009a,b), the
of N,N-bis(phenyl)-suberamide has been determined (I) (Fig. 1).In the structure, the two phenyl rings make an interplanar angle of 76.5 (2)°. The plane of the aliphatic group C2/C7 makes dihedral angles of 26.3 (5)° with the amide group (N1, H1N, C1, O1) and 27.2 (5)° with the amide group (N2, H2N, C8, O2). The conformations of the amide groups with respect to the attached phenyl rings are given by the torsion angles of C14—C9—N1—C1 = -38.0 (6)° and C16—C15—N2—C8 = -42.2 (6)°. The structure is stabilized by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1). The intermolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into the chains running along the b-axis of the crystal (Fig. 2). The crystal is merohedrally twinned with the twin fraction of 0.203 (2).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 amide moiety is an important constituent of many biologically significant compounds. As a part of studying the effect of ring and side chain substitutions on the structures of this class of compounds (Gowda et al., 2007; 2009a,b), the crystal structure of N,N-bis(phenyl)-suberamide has been determined (I) (Fig. 1).
In the structure, the two phenyl rings make an interplanar angle of 76.5 (2)°. The plane of the aliphatic group C2/C7 makes dihedral angles of 26.3 (5)° with the amide group (N1, H1N, C1, O1) and 27.2 (5)° with the amide group (N2, H2N, C8, O2). The conformations of the amide groups with respect to the attached phenyl rings are given by the torsion angles of C14—C9—N1—C1 = -38.0 (6)° and C16—C15—N2—C8 = -42.2 (6)°. The structure is stabilized by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1). The intermolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into the chains running along the b-axis of the crystal (Fig. 2). The crystal is merohedrally twinned with the twin fraction of 0.203 (2).
