Abstract
The structure of 7,8-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin was determined by an X-ray diffraction method. The compound crystallized in the triclinic space group P¯1, Z = 2, with a = 7.631(2), b = 9.456(5), c = 7.075(3)Å, α= 103.13(3), β = 91.84(3), γ= 68.21(3)°, and V = 460.9(3)Å3. The X-ray crystal structure was also compared with those of 5,7-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin and 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin.
