✦ Synopsis
In the title molecule, C 15 H 12 O 2 , the carbonyl group is in an s-cis conformation. The dihedral angle between the planes of the 4-hydroxyphenyl group and the phenyl ring is 34.96 (10) . Electron conjugation is observed between the central ÐCH CHÐC( O)Ð group and the attached rings. The crystal structure is stabilized by OÐHÁ Á ÁO-type intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
