Naphthalene-1,7-diol.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(10)H(8)O(2), contains two planar symmetry-independent molecules linked by an O-H...O hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked into infinite chains of rings, formed by a combination of O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds, and additionally reinforced by pi-pi stacking interactions. Adjacent chains are connected by weak C-H...pi interactions.
