In the title compound, C15H13FN2O2, the fluorophenyl and 4-acetylphenyl rings are twisted from each other by a dihedral angle of 11.6 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules are packed into layers parallel to (010). Each layer contains the molecules linked by a pair of strong N—H...O hydrogen bonds, with an R

2(26) ring motifs connect molecules into a two-dimensional network. The intermolecular interactions have been investigated using Hirshfeld surface studies and two-dimensional fingerprint plots.
In the title compound, C23H17ClN2O3, the 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene ring system (r.m.s deviation = 0.004 Å) subtends dihedral angles of 81.12 (16) and 7.56 (14)° with the chlorophenyl and benzene rings, respectively. The molecular conformation features an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond, forming an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds generating [100] chains featuring R

2(6) loops. Weak aromatic π–π stacking [centroid–centroid distance = 3.656 (2) Å] is also oberved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
