The title compound, C8H8ClNO2, is significantly distorted from planarity, with a twist angle between the planes through the hy-droxy-benzene and acetamide groups being 23.5 (2)°. This conformation is supported by intra-molecular C-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl contacts. In the crystal, N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding contacts between acetamide groups and O-H⋯O contacts between hydroxyl groups form tapes propagating parallel to [103].
Keywords: acetamide; crystal structure; hydrogen-bonding.
