2,4-Dichloro-N-{[1-(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl)piperidin-4-yl]methyl}benzamide

Abstract

In the title compound, C20H18Cl4N2O2, the piperdine ring adopts a chair conformation. The dihedral angles between its mean plane and the two benzene rings are 45.5 (3) and 28.0 (3)°, while the benzene rings are inclined to one another by 54.5 (3)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along thea-axis direction. Neighbouring chains are linked by C—H...π interactions, forming double-stranded chains along [100].
