(2E)-1-(2,6-Dichloro-3-fluoro-phen-yl)-3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one.

ABSTRACT: There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(16)H(11)Cl(2)FO(2). The F atom equally populates both meta positions of the 6-dichloro-3-fluoro-phenyl ring in each mol-ecule, resulting in 0.5 occupancy for both the F and H atoms in these positions. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene rings are 77.5?(2) and 89.8?(8)°in the two mol-ecules. In the crystal, weak C-H?F and C-H?O inter-actions involving the half-occupied H and F atoms are observed. Weak ?-? stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.150?(2)?Å] also contribute to the crystal stability.
