Abstract

The title compound, C₁₇H₁₃FN₂, was synthesized as a potential ligand for the construction of metal-organic frameworks. The two indole motifs present two potential coordination modes. It crystallizes in the ortho-rhom-bic system with space group P2₁2₁2₁. The dihedral angle between the fused ring systems is 68.77 (10)°. Weak F⋯H inter-actions are observed in the crystal.

Keywords: crystal structure.
