title: (E)-N'-(3-Fluoro-benzyl-idene)-2-hydroxy-benzohydrazide.
abstract: The title compound, C(14)H(11)FN(2)O(2), adopts an E or trans configuration with respect to the C=N bond. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond contributes to the relatively planarity of the mol-ecular conformation; the two benzene rings are inclined to one another by 12.5 (2)°. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains running parallel to the c axis.
