2-(Acetoxymethyl)benzoic acid

G. J. Gainsford and R. Schwörer

Abstract: The title compound, C₁₀H₁₀O₄, crystallizes with the well-known carboxylic acid dimer-forming R₂²(8) hydrogen-bond motif. Chains approximately parallel to (-1-12) are then built through C(methylene,phenyl)-HO(carbonyl) interactions [C(6) and C(8) motifs] with one (methyl)C-H [pi] interaction providing interplanar binding. The weakness of the latter interaction is consistent with the difficulty experienced in obtaining suitable single crystals.
