N-(4-Methyl­benz­yl)-3-nitro­aniline

In the title compound, C₁₄H₁₄N₂O₂, the angle between the mean plane of the N-methyl-3-nitro­aniline system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0185 Å) and the p-tolyl unit is 89.79 (4)°. In the crystal, hydrogen-bonded chains running along [10-1] are generated by the linking of neighbouring mol­ecules via N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the 3-nitro­aniline systems and forming R₂²(8) motifs.
