2-(2-Fluorobenzoylamino)benzoic Acid

The structure of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₀FNO₃, was determined at 173 K. The conformation of the molecule is such that both the F atom and the carbonyl O atom of the carboxyl group are located near the amide H atom. Molecules are linked to each other by centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonding interactions through the carboxyl groups, but there are no intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the amide linkage.
