The molecules are interlinked by O–H···O hydrogen bonding across the chains and forming an infinite screw chain along y‐direction. The molecular packing is stabilized by O–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonding and π‐π electron interactions. This is an important facet of the crystal packing. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
