Abstract: The title compound, C₁₄H₁₁FN₂O₂, adopts an E or trans configuration with respect to the C=N bond. An intramolecular N-HO hydrogen bond contributes to the relatively planarity of the molecular conformation; the two benzene rings are inclined to one another by 12.5 (2)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains running parallel to the c axis.
