2-(2-Bromophenyl)acetic acid
Abstract
In the title molecule, C8H7BrO2, the carboxyl group is twisted by 76.2 (3)° from the benzene ring plane. In the crystal, molecules are linked into inversion dimers through pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The dimers are further linked into layers parallel to the bc plane by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds.
