The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H11NO6, contains two molecules in both of which the six-membered 1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione ring shows a screw-boat conformation. The dihedral angles between the best planes through the six-membered rings are 47.8 (2) and 49.8 (2)°. In the crystal, C—HO interactions link the molecules, building a supramolecular sheet parallel to the c axis.

The unit-cell dimensions and space group of the second monoclinic polymorph of the title compound, C15H11FO, differ from those of the previously reported form [Jing (2009). Acta Cryst. E65, o2515]. The title compound shows an E conformation of the C=C bond with the 4-fluorophenyl group opposite to the benzoyl group. The torsion angle of between the planes of the 4-fluorophenyl and benzoyl groups is 10.53 (6)°. In the crystal, weak C—HO and C—HF interactions form a cross-linked packing motif, building sheets parallel to (-102).
