In the title compound, C16H14ClFO3, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 71.50 (5)°. Due to an intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond between the hydroxy group and the carbonyl O atom of the ethyl ester group, the ethyl ester group lies within the ring plane. The is consolidated by intermolecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F interactions.

Experimental: The title compound was prepared according to a previously published procedure (Wolf et al. 2009). To a CH2Cl2 (6 ml) solution of 1-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-trimethylsilanyloxy-but-2-en-1-one (720 mg, 2.8 mmol) and 4-chloro-1-ethoxy-1,3-bis-trimethylsilanyloxy-buta-1,3-diene (970 mg, 3.1 mmol) was added TiCl4 (0.34 ml, 3.1 mmol) at 195 K under argon atmosphere. The solution was allowed to warm to ambient temperature within 20 hrs. To the solution was added a
of NaHCO3 (15 mL). The organic and the aqueous layers were separated and the latter was extracted with diethyl ether (3 × 20 ml). The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by (silica gel, EtOAc / n-heptane = 1:4). The title compound was isolated as a colorless crystalline solid. Yield: 390 mg, 45%. Mp. = 352 K. Crystallization from a saturated dichloromethane/methanol (9:1) solution at ambient temperature gave colorless crystals.The H atom bonded to O1 was located from a difference map and refined freely. Other H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.98 (methyl groups) or 0.95 Å (aryl CH) and with Uiso(H) = 1.5 times Ueq(C) (methyl groups) or with Uiso(H) = 1.2 times Ueq(C) (aryl CH). Torsion angles of all methyl groups were allowed to refine.

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'s 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 > 2σ(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. |

Functionalized chloroarenes are of considerable pharmacological relevance. 3-Chlorosalicylates and related compounds are employed as pharmacological agents (Wolf et al., 2009).
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 71.50 (5)°. The ethyllester group lies within the ring plane due to an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group and the carbonyl O atom of the ehtyllester group, O1—H1···O2. The crystal structure is consolidated by weak C7—H7C···O1 and C9—H9A···F intermolecular interactions.
