2,4,6‐Tri­methyl­benz­amide

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₀H₁₃NO, displays an infinite one‐dimensional network composed of primary amide mol­ecules connected by N—H?Ozdbnd;C hydrogen bonds involving the anti NH amide H atoms, thus generating a C(4) motif. This network is additionally stabilized by a weak N—H?π interaction between the syn‐oriented amide H atom and the aromatic ring of a neighbouring mol­ecule. The distance between the H atom and the ring centroid is 2.50 Å. The amide group and the aryl moiety are nearly perpendicular, forming an intramolecular dihedral angle of 84.69 (6)°.
