2-(Furan-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one

Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C13H8O4, the inversely oriented molecules form inversion dimers through pairs of O—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions. An intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond occurs. In the packing of the molecules, the nearly planar 2-(furan-2-yl)-4H-chromene units [dihedral angle between the chromene and furan rings = 3.8 (1)°] are either parallel or inclined at an angle of 80.7 (1)°.
