5-Chloro-8-hydr-oxy-6-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone.

ABSTRACT: The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(11)H(7)ClO(3), is planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.0383 (10) Å from the naphthoquinone plane. An intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Short intra-molecular Cl⋯O [2.8234 (8) Å] and O⋯O [2.5530 (11) Å], and inter-molecular Cl⋯Cl [3.2777 (3) Å] contacts further stabilize the crystal structure.
