N-Cyclo-hexyl-3-fluoro-benzamide

Abstract

In the title mol-ecule, C(13)H(16)FNO, the amide (N-C=O) plane is oriented at an angle of 29.9 (2)° with respect to the aromatic ring. The cyclo-hexane ring adopts the usual chair conformation. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains along [100]. A weak C-H⋯F inter-action is also observed. The F atom is disordered over two positions with occupancy factors of 0.873 (3) and 0.127 (3).
