The title compound, C23H17FN2O3, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The molecules are connected by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds and have slightly different conformations, as indicated by the dihedral angles between the central imidazolidine-2,4-dione ring and its three substituents. In one molecule, these are 60.56 (1) and 82.66 (9)° to the phenyl rings and 84.35 (16)° to the 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl side chain. In the other molecule, the corresponding angles are 66.35 (10), 84.94 (9) and 86.31 (16)°. In the crystal, weak C—H...O interactions leading to a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture.
