, the aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 69.26 (3)°. In the crystal structure, inversion dimers arise from pairs of intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds further consolidate the packing. There are also C—H⋯π contacts between the benzoic acid and 2-fluorobenzene rings.
