Abstract: The title compound, C₁₆H₁₃FO, adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=C bond of the propenone unit. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 47.0 (5)°. Intramolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds generate an S(5) ring motif. In the crystal structure, molecules are packed into columns along the c axis and the structure is stabilized by weak intramolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds and intermolecular C-H interactions involving both aromatic rings.
