N-(2,6-Dichloro-phen-yl)-2-(naphthalen-1-yl)acetamide.

In the title compound, C(18)H(13)Cl(2)NO, the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring form dihedral angles of 74.73†(13) and 62.53†(16)°, respectively, with the acetamide grouping [maximum deviation = 0.005†(3)†à ]. The naphthalene ring system forms a dihedral angle of 75.14†(13)° with the benzene ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming C(4) chains propagating in [010]. The O atom also accepts two C-H⋯O inter-actions.
