✦ Synopsis
The stable title hemiacetal, C 15 H 14 O 3 , has been prepared. One attractive feature in the structure is the gauche conformation determined by stereoelectronic factors. A hydrogen bond is formed between two neighbouring molecules, in which the hydroxyl group acts as both donor and acceptor.
