(E)-Isopropyl 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylate

Abstract

In the title compound, C12H14O4, a derivative of caffeic acid [(E)-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid], an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond forms an S(5) ring. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds link molecules into chains propagating in [110].
