Description
Summary:In the title compound, C8H6Cl2O2, the dihedral angle between the C—C(=O)—OH carboxyl unit and the benzene ring is 70.70 (4)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked into inversion dimers by pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The dimers are linked into chains extending along [001] by weak C—H...Cl interactions.
