The crystal structure of the title compound (26DMPCA), C10H12ClNO, is closely related to those of side-chain-unsubstituted N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide and side-chain-substituted 2,2,2-trichloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide and N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2,2,2-trimethylacetamide, with slightly different bond parameters. The molecules in 26DMPCA are linked into chains through N—H...O hydrogen bonding.
