The title compound, C(11)H(11)NO(2), was synthesized by chemoselective N-acetyl-ation of 4-amino-phenol followed by reaction with propargyl bromide in the presence of K(2)CO(3). the acetamide and propyn-1-yloxy substituents form dihedral angles of 18.31 (6) and 7.01 (10)°, respectively, with the benzene ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains along [010]. C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions also occur.
