Abstract

The molecular structure of the title acid, $C_{15}H_{14}O_{2}$, exhibits a trans-planar arrangement of the aromatic rings. The carboxyl group is inclined at an angle of $6.4 (1) ^o$ with respect to the attached benzene ring. The classical hydrogen-bonded carboxylic acid dimers (O...O = 2.7 \AA), characterized by an $R^{2}_ 2(8)$ pattern, predominantly stabilize the supramolecular assembly.
