The title compound, C 14 H 12 O 2 , is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of various biologically active and pharmaceutical compounds. Bond lengths and angles adopt usual values. The dihedral angles between the two aromatic rings [53.39 (3)°] and between the carboxyl group and adjacent ring [42.37 (10)°] lie in the expected ranges. The crystal structure is characterized by centrosymmetric hydrogen‐bonded dimers.
