title: Methyl 2-(4-hy-droxy-benzo-yl)benzoate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(15)H(12)O(4), the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 64.0 (6)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming C(8) chains propagating in [10[Formula: see text]] and the packing is reinforced by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions.
