title: 3-Hydroxy-meth-yl-6,8-dimeth-oxy-2H-chromen-2-one.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(12)H(12)O(5), contains four independent mol-ecules. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into one-dimensional infinite chains. They are arranged in a nearly parallel fashion along the b axis and stabilized by π-π inter-actions [3.443 (2) Å].
