The title compound (ethyl vanillin), C9H10O3, an important food additive and flavouring agent approved by FAO/WHO, has a vanilla odor four times that of vanillin and shows antimutagenic activity. There are two molecules in the each having a planar conformation and an intramolecular O—H⋯O bond. Molecules are connected side-by-side, building infinite ribbons along c via intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl and hydroxyl groups. The ribbons are then packed into layers perpendicular to the a axis.

One of the synthetic methods was reported by literature(Gradeff & Murayama, 1982). The crude title compound commercially available was recrystallized two times from EtOH/water (1:1) solution, and then colourless block crystals were collected after slow evaporation at room temperature.
The structure was solved successfully with direct method. Due to the high quality of diffraction data, R(int) = 0.0252, all H atoms were located in a difference map easily and refined isotropically.

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
Refinement. Refinement on F2 for ALL reflections except those flagged by the user for potential systematic errors. Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The observed criterion of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating -R-factor-obs etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The title compound, an ethyl analogue of vanillin, is an important food additive and flavouring agent approved by FAO/WHO. Its vanilla odor is four times stronger than the flavour of vanillin. Now, it is widely used in food, beverage, cigarette and cosmetics. This synthetic compound was reported to show marked anti-mutagenic activity against mutagenicity induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, furylfuramide, captan or methylglyoxal, similar to another report (Li, 2008). It was assumed that the anti-mutagenic activity was due to enhancement of an error-free recombinational repair system (Ohta et al., 1986). But the structure of ethyl vanillin has never been reported. we then report herein its crystal structure determination (Fig.1). The crystal structure consists of layers of planar molecules linked as one-dimensional chains (Fig. 2).
