title: (2E)-1-(3,4-Dichloro-phen-yl)-3-(2-hy-droxy-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one.
abstract: In the title compound, C(15)H(10)Cl(2)O(2), the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 7.7 (6)°. The crystal packing is influenced by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which form chains along [010]. Weak π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.6697 (13) Å] are observed, which may contribute to the crystal packing stability.
