Comment

The self-organization of small molecules with O—H···O and other weak intermolecular interactions is used to create one-, two-, and three-dimensional networks in crystalline solids (Huo et al., 2004). Recently, aromatic di- or poly(carboxylic acids) have been investigated in the area of solid state and material science (Ma et al., 2003). The title compound was synthesized from benzene-1,3-diacetic acid. In the crystal, molecules of the title compound are connected through O—H···O H-bonding interactions to chains running along the c-axis.

Experimental

A hot aqueous solution of benzene-1,3-diacetic acid (1 mmol) was stirred until the white solids were dissolved. The clear solution was allowed to cool to room temperature and evaporated in air for 5 days. Then, colourless crystals of the title compound were obtained.

Refinement

In the absence of anomalous scatterers Friedel pairs (714) were merged. H atoms were generated geometrically and refined as riding atoms with O—H= 0.82Å, Caromatic—H= 0.93Å Cmethylene—H= 0.97Å and Uiso(H)= 1.2 times Ueq(C) or Uiso(H)= 1.5 times Ueq(O).

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
