A monoclinic polymorph of N-(3-chloro-phen-yl)benzamide
Abstract:
The title compound, C(13)H(10)ClNO, (I), is a polymorph of the structure, (II), first reported by Gowda et al. [Acta Cryst. (2008), E64, o462]. In the original report, the compound crystallized in the ortho-rhom-bic space group Pbca (Z = 8), whereas the structure reported here is monoclinic P21/c (Z = 4). The principal difference between the two forms lies in the relative orientations of the phenyl and benzene rings [dihedral angle = 8.90 (13)° for (I) and 61.0 (1)° for (II)]. The inclination of the amide -CONH- units to the benzoyl ring is more similar [15.8 (7)° for (I) and 18.2 (2)° for (II)]. In both forms, the N-H bonds are anti to the 3-chloro substituents of the aniline rings. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form C(4) chains along c. These chains are bolstered by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions that generate R(2) (1)(6) and R(2) (1)(7) ring motifs.

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...
