Five new derivatives of N-(ω-hydroxyalkyl)-4-chlorophenoxyacetamide [namely, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(3-hydroxypropyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-[1-(hydroxymethyl) propyl] acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylethyl) acetamide, and 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-{2-[(2-hydroxyethyl) amino] ethyl} acetamide] and one 2-(4-chlorophenoxy) acetohydrazide have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. These organic compounds are potential pesticides. New diffraction data including experimental and calculated 2θ peaks positions, values of d, experimental relative peak intensities, and Miller indices as well as unit-cell parameters are reported.
