2‐(4‐Acetyl‐3,5‐di­hydroxy‐2‐methyl­phenoxy)‐4,6‐di­methoxy‐3‐methyl­benzoic acid

In the title compound, C₁₉H₂₀O₈, the benzene rings are nearly perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle 80.2 (2)°]. The carboxy group is twisted out while both the methoxy and acetyl groups are almost coplanar with their attached benzene rings. The hydroxy group is involved in an intramolecular O—H?O hydrogen bond with the acetyl O atom and the compound is connected through an intermolecular O—H?O contact to form a dimer. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H?O hydrogen bonds.
