The title compound, C(6)H(6)O(3), is a member of the pyrone family. The mol-ecules are planar (r.m.s. deviation of the asymmetric unit is 0.0248 Å, whereas that of the dimer is 0.0360 Å) and they are dimerized due to inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dimers are connected to each other through hydrogen bonds involving the CH(3) group and the hydr-oxy O atom. There are π-π inter-actions between the centroids of the pyrone rings at a distance of 3.8552 (13) Å. A C-H⋯π inter-action also exis ...[more]
