2-Methoxy-3-(trimethylsilyl)phenylboronic acid

Abstract

The molecular structure of the title compound, C10H17BO3Si, features an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond; the boronic group group has an exo–endo conformation. In the crystal, the molecules interact with each other by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, producing centrosymmetric dimers that are linked by weak π–π stacking interactions featuring specific short B...C contacts [e.g. 3.372 (2) Å], forming an infinite columnar structure aligned along the a-axis direction.
