<h4>The title compound (systematic name</h4>rac-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-hy-droxy-propanoic acid), C3H3F3O3, is a fluorinated derivative of lactic acid. The O=C-C-O(H) torsion angle is 13.26 (15)°. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯O contacts connect the mol-ecules into sheets perpendicular to the c axis. ...[more]
