In the title compound, C14H8F2N2O, the amide plane is inclined at dihedral angles of 28.12 (12) and 32.89 (12)° with respect to the two benzene rings; the dihedral angle between the two rings is 5.58 (5)°. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H⋯O and C—H⋯F hydrogen bonds link adjacent molecules into a double-chain structure along the b axis.

A mixture of 4-amino benzonitrile (4.2 mmol), 2,6-difluorobenzoic acid (4.6 mmol) and triethyl amine (21 mmol) was dissolved in methylene dichloride (5 ml). The resulting solution was cooled to 273 K followed by the drop wise addition of 50 % phosphoric acid cyclic anhydride solution in ethyl acetate (4 ml, 6.3 mmol) and stirred for 12 h. The completion of reaction was checked by TLC. Evaporation of solvent gave 2,6-difluoro-N-(p-cyanophenyl)benzamide as solid mass, which was then stirred with saturated NaHCO3 solution to remove excess of acid. Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by crystallization from acetone under slow evaporation. M.p. 418 K.
All H atoms were located from a difference Fourier map and allowed to refine freely [refined distances: N—H = 0.860 (16) Å and C—H = 0.933 (15)–0.984 (15) Å].
A number of benzamide derivatives were reported as anti-hypertensive (Ashwood et al., 1990), anti-diabetic (Kees et al., 1989), anti-bacterial (Ragavan et al., 2010), anti-fungal (Carmellino et al., 1994) and anti-cancer (Rauko et al., 2001) activities. On the basis of these considerations, our particular attention was paid for the synthesis of some benzamide derivatives.
In the title benzamide derivative, the amino moiety (C7/N1/O1) is essentially planar, as indicated by the C7–O1–N1–H1N1 torsion angle of -1.4 (18)°. The mean plane through the amido moiety is inclined at dihedral angles of 32.89 (12) and 28.12 (12)°, respectively, with the C1–C6 and C8–C13 benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings being 5.58 (5)°. All bond lengths and angles are comparable to values observed in a closely related benzamide structure (Cronin et al., 2000). In the crystal packing, adjacent molecules are interconnected into two-molecule-wide infinite chains propagating along the [010] direction (Fig. 2) via intermolecular N1—H1N1···O1 and C12—H12···F1 hydrogen bonds (Table 1).

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1)K. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

A number of benzamide derivatives were reported as anti-hypertensive (Ashwood et al., 1990), anti-diabetic (Kees et al., 1989), anti-bacterial (Ragavan et al., 2010), anti-fungal (Carmellino et al., 1994) and anti-cancer (Rauko et al., 2001) activities. On the basis of these considerations, our particular attention was paid for the synthesis of some benzamide derivatives.
In the title benzamide derivative, the amino moiety (C7/N1/O1) is essentially planar, as indicated by the C7–O1–N1–H1N1 torsion angle of -1.4 (18)°. The mean plane through the amido moiety is inclined at dihedral angles of 32.89 (12) and 28.12 (12)°, respectively, with the C1–C6 and C8–C13 benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings being 5.58 (5)°. All bond lengths and angles are comparable to values observed in a closely related benzamide structure (Cronin et al., 2000). In the crystal packing, adjacent molecules are interconnected into two-molecule-wide infinite chains propagating along the [010] direction (Fig. 2) via intermolecular N1—H1N1···O1 and C12—H12···F1 hydrogen bonds (Table 1).
