Abstract
In the title compound, C10H8O3 (systematic name 3-hydroxymethyl-4H-chromen-4-one), the fused-ring system is slightly puckered [dihedral angle between the rings = 3.84 (11)°]. The hydroxy O atom deviates from the heterocyclic ring by 1.422 (1) Å. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R 2 2(12) loops. The dimers are linked by aromatic π–π stacking [shortest centroid–centroid distance = 3.580 (3) Å], and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.
Keywords: crystal structure, chromone, hydrogen bonding, π–π stacking

S1. Comment
Many derivatives of the title compound (3-hydroxymethylchromone) are reported as retinoic acid receptor binders (Sun et al. (2009)), human monoamine oxidase inhibitors (Helguera et al. (2013)) and anti-proliferative agents (Venkateswararao et al. (2014)).
The mean deviation of the least-square planes for the non-hydrogen atoms except hydroxy O3 atom is 0.0479 Å, and the largest deviation is 0.146 (2) Å for C10. These mean that these atoms are essentially coplanar (Fig.1). The dihedral angle of C3–C2–C10–O3 is 70.6 (2). In the crystal, the pyran rings are stacked [centroid–centroid distance between the pyran rings of the 4H-chromene units = 3.894 (3) Å], and C–H···O hydrogen bonds are formed to give dimers running along the c direction, as shown in Fig.2.
S2. Experimental
The title compound was synthesized from 3-formylchromone according to the literature method (Araya-Maturana et al. 2003). Colourless blocks were obtained by slow evaporation of an ethyl acetate solution of the title compound at room temperature.
S3. Refinement
All hydrogen atoms were placed in geometrical positions [C–H 0.95 Å and O–H 0.84 Å], and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq of the parent atoms.
