The amide bond in the title compound {systematic name: 3-[(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)aminocarbonyl]propionic acid}, C13H17NO3, has a trans conformation. In the crystal, two molecules form a centrosymmetric dimer connected by pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the dimers into a three dimensional network.
