Abstract: In the molecule of the title compound, C₁₅H₁₃NO₃, the phthalide ring system is virtually planar, with a dihedral angle of 1.98 (3)° between the fused five- and six-membered rings. The substituted aromatic ring is oriented at a dihedral angle of 57.50 (3)° with respect to the phthalide ring system. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-HO and N-HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules, forming a three-dimensional network.
