Popis: The crystal structure of 3-oxo-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid, C 7 H 8 O 3 , involves hydrogen-bonding catemers of an unusual type. Hydrogen bonds progress from the carboxyl H atom of one molecule to the ketone O atom of a glide-related molecule [O...O 2.703 (2) A], resulting in heterochiral chains. Parallel counterdirectional pairs of hydrogen-bonding chains proceed through the chosen cell. There are mutual close contacts of 2.65 A between the ketone O and vinyl H atoms of centrosymmetrically related chains. Two of the tetrahedral C atoms of the molecule are flexionally disordered, and three of their associated H atoms show attractive intermolecular close contacts to O atoms.
