title: (E)-4-(4-Fluoro-styr-yl)benzoic acid.
abstract: The title compound, C(15)H(11)FO(2), is an important inter-mediate in the synthesis of side-chain ligands for polymeric liquid crystals. The vinyl group is almost coplanar with both the aromatic rings. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding.
