2,3,4-Trihydroxybenzaldehyde

The title compound, C7H6O4, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. In both molecules, the 2-hydroxy group is bound via intramolecular hydrogen bonds to the aldehyde group. The molecules interact through O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network...

Description
Summary:The title compound, C7H6O4, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. In both molecules, the 2-hydroxy group is bound via intramolecular hydrogen bonds to the aldehyde group. The molecules interact through O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network structure; each hydroxy group serves as a donor to only one acceptor atom.
