4-Hexyl-oxybenzamide

In the title compound, C(13)H(19)NO(2), the dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the plane throught the non-H atoms of the amide group is 29.3 (1)°. The benzene ring and the alkane carbon skeleton plane are twisted slightly with respect to each other [5.40 (5)°]. In the crystal, mol-ecules are oriented with the amide groups head-to-head, forming N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonded dimers. The dimers are connected by further N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a ladder-like motif along the b axis.
