Comment
The title compound (I), (Fig. 1) is prepared as a precursor and for the study of biological activities.
The crystal structure of 6-fluoro-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ol (Siddle et al., 2010) has been published which is related to (I).
In (I) the fluorophenyl A (C1–C6/F1) and the 2-fluoropyridine B (C7—C11/N1/F2) are almost planar with r. m. s. deviations of 0.0025 Å and 0.0071 Å, rspectively. The dihedral angle between A/B is 37.93 (5)°. There does not exist any kind of π-interactions and the molecules must interact due to van Der Waals forces.
Experimental
To a 6 ml solution of 5-bromo-2-fluoropyridine (0.2 g, 1.136 mmol), 4-fluorophenylboronic acid (0.190 g, 1.36 mmol) in Dioxane and K3PO4 (0.361 g, 1.5 mmol, in 1 ml H2O) was added Pd(PPh3)4 (1.5 mole %) at 373 K under N2 atmosphere. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 8 h. Then 20 ml of distilled water was added. The aqueous layer was extracted three times with EtOAc (3×15 ml). The organic layer was evaporated in vacuo and title compound was obtained as a colourless solid. Yield: 0.185 g, 85%. M.p. 350–352 K. Crystallization from a saturated CHCl3 /CH3OH solution gave colorless rods of (I).
Refinement
The H-atoms were positioned geometrically (C–H = 0.93 Å) and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.2 for all H-atoms. The absolute structure of the crystal used in this experiment was indeterminate.

Special details
| Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
| 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. |
