1-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)hexan-1-one
Abstract
In the title compound, C12H16O3, a fully extened hexyl carbon chain is attached to a benzene ring; the mean planes formed by the atoms in the benzene ring and the hexanone are inclined at an angle 8.5 (2)° with respect to each other. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds join the molecules into an infinite sheet.
