Abstract: In the title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₆H₁₅O₃)], the cyclopentadienyl rings are in an eclipsed conformation and the benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 10.84 (9) and 12.35 (9)°, respectively, with the substituted and unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl rings. In the crystal, molecules form inversion dimers through pairs of O-HO hydrogen bonds. Weak C-HO hydrogen bonds are observed between the dimers.
