In the title compound, C13H9FN4O4, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings of the nearly planar molecule is 6.6 (9)°. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the benzene ring and its two attached nitro groups are 6.7 (7) and 7.2 (9)°. Crystal packing is stabilized by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F intermolecular interactions and centroid–centroid π-ring stacking interactions.

A mixture of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (1.98 g) and 2-fluorobenzaldehyde (1.24 g) was dissolved in methanol and refluxed for about 6h. The precipitate formed was filtered, dried and recrystallized in ethlyacetate. X-ray quality crystals of the title compound (I), were obtained after three days by the slow evaporation of a 1:1 mixture of dimethylformamide and pyridine at room temperature. (mp: 502 - 505 K).
The parameters of all the H atoms have been constrained within the riding atom approximation. C—H bond lengths were constrained to 0.95 Å for aryl atoms, Uiso(H) = 1.18–1.20Ueq(Caryl). N—H bond lengths were constrained to 0.88 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.20Ueq(N).

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 > σ(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. |

Schiff bases and their complexes are widely used in the fields of biology, catalysis etc. (Liang, 2007). Especially, the dinitrophenyl hydrazones exhibit good nonlinear optical (NLO) and crystalline properties (Baughman et al., 2004) and are found to have versatile coordinating abilities towards different metal ions. In addition, some 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazone derivatives have been shown to be potentially DNA-damaging and mutagenic agents (Okabe et al., 1993). As a result of their significant molecular nonlinearities many x-ray structural studies of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones have been reported. Among them, the most closely related structures are (E)-p-methoxy-acetophenone 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (Bolte & Dill, 1998), acetophenone (2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazone (Shan et al., 2002), 3-chloroacetophenone 2,4-dintrophenyl- hydrazone (Fan et al., 2004), 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (Baughman et al., 2004), syn-acetophenone (2,4-dinitrophenyl) hydrazone (Motherwell & Ramsay, 2007), 1-(2-chlorobenzylidene)-2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazine (Shi et al., 2008), N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-N'-(1-p-tolylethylidene) hydrazine (Kia et al., 2009), N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-N'-(1-phenylethylidene)hydrazine (Ji et al., 2010) and (1E)-1-(3-bromophenyl)ethanone 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (Jasinski et al., 2010). In view of the importance of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones, this paper reports the crystal structure of the title compound, C13H9FN4O4, (I).
In the title compound the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings of a nearly planar molecule is 6.69°, (Fig. 2). The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene ring and its two bonded nitro groups are 6.7 (7)° and 7.2 (9)°, respectively. Crystal packing is stabilized by N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 3), weak C—H···O intermolecular interactions and Cg—Cg π-ring stacking interactions (Table 2).
