Abstract
The title compound, C16H14O3, adopts a conformation in which each functional group is almost coplanar with its adjacent ring, while the two aromatic rings are twisted with respect to one another with a dihedral angle of 78.51 (3)°. The compound dimerizes by standard centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded carboxyl pairing [O⋯O = 2.6218 (11) Å and O—H⋯O = 176 (2)°]. The packing includes two intermolecular C—H⋯O close contacts with the ketone group.
