(E)-Ethyl 3-(2-fluoroanilino)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate

The title compound, C18H18FNO3, consists of three individually planar subunits, namely two substituted benzene rings and one aminoacrylate group. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 47.48 (8)°. The aminoacrylate group forms dihedral angles of 57.95 (7) and 11.27 (6)° with the methoxyphenyl and fluorophenyl rings, respectively.
