Dimethyl 2,6-dihydroxy-benzene-1,4-dicarboxyl-ate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(10)H(10)O(6), was obtained from an esterification reaction of 2,6-dihydroxy-terephthalic acid and methanol. In the mol-ecular structure, all of the C atoms are nearly coplanar. The two hydr-oxy groups have C2 symmetry. Intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed. In the crystal, weak O-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules.
