In the title compound, C15H14ClNO, the conformation of the N—H bond is anti to the meta-methyl group in the aniline ring, while that of the C=O bond is anti to the ortho-chloro group in the benzoyl ring. The mean planes through the two benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 80.8 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming column-like chains along the b axis.

The title compound was prepared according to the literature method (Gowda Jyothi et al., 2003). The purity of the compound was checked by determining its melting point. It was characterized by recording its infrared and NMR spectra. Prism like light brown single crystals of the title compound were obtained from an ethanolic solution and used for X-ray diffraction studies at room temperature.
The H atom of the NH group was located in a difference map and later restrained to N—H = 0.86 (2) %A. The other H atoms were positioned with idealized geometry using a riding model with the aromatic C—H = 0.93 Å and the methyl C—H = 0.96 Å. All H atoms were refined with isotropic displacement parameters. The Uiso(H) values were set at 1.2Ueq(C aromatic, N) and 1.5Ueq(C methyl).

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. |

To explore the effect of substituents on the structures of acetanilides (Bhat & Gowda, 2000; Gowda, Foro et al., 2007) and benzanilides (Gowda, Foro et al., 2009; Gowda, Jyothi et al., 2003; Gowda, Tokarčík et al., 2010), in the present work, the structure of 2-chloro-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-benzamide (I) has been determined. The N—H and C═O bonds in the amide group are anti to each other (Fig.1), similar to that observed in N-(phenyl)-benzamide (Bowes et al., 2003), 2-chloro-N-(phenyl)-benzamide (Gowda, Jyothi et al., 2003), 2-chloro-N-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)- benzamide (Gowda, Tokarčík et al., 2010) and 2-chloro-N- (3,5-dimethylphenyl)-benzamide (Gowda, Foro et al., 2009).
The conformation of the N—H bond is anti to the meta-methyl group in the aniline ring, while that of the C=O bond is anti to the ortho-chloro group in the benzoyl ring.
The central amide group –NHCO– is inclined to the benzoyl ring with C9 – C8 – C7 – N1 and C9 – C8 – C7 – N1 torsional angles of 120.2 (5) and -62.7 (5)°, respectively, while it is inclined to the aniline benzene ring with C2 – C1 – N1 – C7 and C6 – C1 – N1 – C7 torsional angles of -40.1 (7) and 139.5 (7)°, respectively.
The mean planes through the two benzene rings make dihedral angle of 80.8 (2)°. The intermolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into column like chains extending along the b axis (Fig. 2).
