The asymmetric unit of O,O\\\\\\\'-dimethyl [(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl)hydrazinyl]phosphonate, C8H8F5N2O3P, is composed of two symmetry-independent molecules with significant differences in the orientations of the C6F5 and OMe groups. In the crystal structure, a one-dimensional assembly is mediated from classical N—H…O hydrogen bonds, which includes R22(8), D(2) and some higher-order graph-set motifs. By also considering weak C—H…O═P and C—H…O—C intermolecular interactions, a two-dimensional network extends along the ab plane. The strengths of the hydrogen bonds were evaluated using quantum chemical calculations with the GAUSSIAN09 software package at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The LP(O) to σ*(NH) and σ*(CH) charge-transfer interactions were examined according to second-order perturbation theory in natural bond orbital (NBO) methodology. The hydrogen-bonded clusters of molecules, including N—H…O and C—H…O interactions, were constructed as input files for the calculations and the strengths of the hydrogen bonds are as follows: N—H…O [R22(8)] > N—H…O [D(2)] > C—H…O. The decomposed fingerprint plots show that the contribution portions of the F…H/ H…F contacts in both molecules are the largest.
