3-(1-Hydr-oxy-2-phenyl-prop-2-en-1-yl)phenol.

ABSTRACT: Two independent pseudo-enanti-omeric mol-ecules comprise the asymmetric unit in the title compound, C(15)H(14)O(2). While the central O-C-C-C residue approaches planarity [torsion angles = -15.8 (3) (mol-ecule a) and 15.4 (3)° (mol-ecule b)], the benzene rings are approximately orthogonal [the dihedral angles formed between the benzene rings are 62.89 (12) (mol-ecule a) and 80.15 (12)° (mol-ecule b)]. Two-dimensional arrays in the ab plane sustained by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding are found in the crystal structure.
