(E)-3-(3-Chloro­phen­yl)-N-(4-hy­droxy-3-meth­oxy­benz­yl)acryl­amide

摘要

In the title compound, C17H16ClNO3, the 4-hy­droxy-3-meth­oxy­benzyl group is planar [maximum atomic deviation = 0.0138 (16) Å] and is nearly perpendicular to the chloro­benzene ring, making a dihedral angle of 84.67 (4)°. The chloro­benzene and amide groups are located on the opposite sides of the C=C bond, showing an E configuration. The relatively long C=O bond distance of 1.2364 (19) Å and the short C—N bond distance of 1.341 (2) Å suggest electron delocalization in the amide fragment. Inter­molecular O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
