2-Hydroxybiphenyl-3-carboxylic acid (3-phenylsalicylic acid).
In the title compound, C13H10O3, there is a single type of intermolecular hydrogen bond. From this is formed a cyclic dimer about a twofold axis. In addition, there is an intramolecular hydrogen bond which is virtually identical to that observed in salicylic acid.
