Popis: A new polymorph of the title compound, C10H13NO, was obtained by recrystallization of the commercial product from a water/ethanol mixture (1:1 v/v). Crystals of the previously reported racemic and homochiral forms of 2-phenylbutyramide were grown from water–acetonitrile solution in 1:1 volume ratio [Khrustalev et al. (2014). Cryst. Growth Des. 14, 3360–3369]. While the previously reported racemic and enantiopure forms of the title compound adopt very similar supramolecular structures (hydrogen-bonded ribbons), the new racemic polymorph is stabilized by a single N—H...O hydrogen bond that links molecules into chains along the c-axis direction with an antiparallel (centrosymmetric) packing in the crystal. Hirshfeld molecular surface analysis was employed to compare the intermolecular interactions in the polymorphs of the title compound.
