“…As part of our studies on amide compounds, the title compound, (I), was synthesized and the structure was determined. The bond lengths (Table 1) are comparable with those in the related compound, N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(quinolin-8yloxy)acetamide monohydrate, (II) (Wen et al, 2005). The non-H atoms in (I) show a nearly planar conformation, with a dihedral angle of 8.46 (6) between the benzene ring and the quinoline moiety, while the corresponding value in (II) is 67.06 (7) .…”
