Abstract: In the title compound, C₉H₉FO₃, the dihedral angle between the carboxyl group and the benzene ring is 79.4 (3)°. In the crystal, molecules form centrosymmetric dimers through pairs of classical O-HO hydrogen bonds. These are further linked by weaker C-HO interactions, forming a three-dimensional network.
