3,4,5-Trimeth­oxy-N-(2-methoxy­phen­yl)benzamide

In the title mol­ecule, C(17)H(19)NO(5), the amide plane is oriented at an angle of 41.5 (3)° with respect to the 2-methoxy­benzene ring. The three meth­oxy groups lie almost in the plane of the aromatic rings to which they are attached [C—O—C—C torsion angles of of 0.7 (4), −13.4 (4) and 3.1 (4)°], whereas the meth­oxy group at the 4-position of the 3,4,5-trimethoxy­benzene ring is nearly perpendicularly oriented [C—O—C—C torsion angle of 103.9 (3)°]. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains along [001].
