(E)-3-[(2-Fluorophenylimino)Methyl]-Benzene-1,2-Diol

Abstract

The title compound, C13H10FNO2, adopts the enol-imine tautomeric form. Intra-molecular O - H⋯O and O - H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate S(5) and S(6) ring motifs, respectively, whereas inter-molecular O - H⋯O hydrogen bonding links the mol-ecules into centrosymmetric R 2 2(10) dimers. Inter-molecular C - H⋯π and π-π inter-actions link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network. The π-π interactions occur between the fluoro-substituted benzene rings and the centroid-to centroid distance is 3.7590 (12) Å. © 2007 International Union of Crystallography. All rights reserved.
