Abstract: In the title compound, C₉H₁₂NO₆P, intramolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds form five- and six-membered rings. In the crystal, inversion dimers lined by pairs of C-HO hydrogen bonds occur with ring motifs R₂²(10). The O atom of the hydroxy group behaves as an accepter and the benzene ring as donor. Adjacent dimers are connected through O-HO links.
