N-[(2-Hydr-oxy-1-naphthyl)(3-nitro-phenyl)meth-yl]acetamide.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(19)H(16)N(2)O(4), is of inter-est as a precursor to biologically active substituted quinolines and related compounds. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring is 81.9?(1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H?O inter-molecular hydrogen bonds, linking the mol-ecules into pairs around a center of symmetry. The crystal structure is further stabilized by inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds, which link the mol-ecules into chains running along a axis. An intra-molecular C-H?O short contact is also present.
