3-Hydroxy-4-nitrophenyl acetate

C. Liu, C. Cheng and X. Ji

Abstract: In the molecule of the title compound, C₈H₇NO₅, the acetate group is oriented with respect to the aromatic ring at a dihedral angle of 85.30 (3)°. An intramolecular O-HO hydrogen bond results in the formation of a non-planar six-membered ring, adopting an envelope conformation. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules.
