Abstract:
The title mol-ecule, C(22)H(16)N(2)O(4), is a 2,2'-disubstituted biphenyl whose phenyl-ene rings are rotated by 66.5 (1)° so as to avoid repulsion by the substituents. Only one of the two amide -NH- fragments engages in hydrogen bonding, and this inter-acts with the amido -C(=O)- acceptor of an inversion-related mol-ecule to generate a hydrogen-bonded dimer.

IUPAC Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acids
For acyclic saturated monocarboxylic acids, the longest hydrocarbon chain containing the –COOH carbon is identified as the parent chain. Then, the last -e of the parent hydrocarbon name is replaced with a suffix -oic acid.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
