2-Fluoro-N-o-tolyl-benzamide.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(14)H(12)FNO, the ortho-F atom and corresponding H atom on the fluoro-benzene ring are disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.856?(4) and 0.144?(4). The amide unit is planar with a maximum deviation of 0.0057?(16)?Å and the amide plane makes dihedral angles of 38.27?(11)° with the fluoro-benzene ring plane and 37.53?(10)° with the tolyl ring. The two benzene rings are inclined at an angle of 4.17?(15)°. In the crystal structure, chains form along b through N-H?O hydrogen bonds augmented by C-H?? inter-actions. Additional inter-molecular C-H?O and C-H?F hydrogen bonds further stabilize the structure, forming layers in the ac plane.
