1-(2-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)ethanone

In title compound, C10H12O4, all of the non-H atoms lie approximately in a plane with the largest deviation being 0.061 (2) . An intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. No classical intermolecular hydrogen bonding occurs, with only van der Waals forces stabilizing the crystal structure.
