Abstract:
There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H15NO4, which was isolated from fruits of Zanthoxylum leprieurii. The atoms of the three rings of each mol-ecule are close to coplanar with the largest deviations from the least-squares planes being 0.084 (3) Å and 0.069 (2) Å. Each molecule features an intramolecular O-H⋯·O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, C-H⋯·O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Acid Halides, Esters, and Acid Anhydrides
The IUPAC and common names of acid halides are derived from the corresponding carboxylic acids, by changing “ic acid” to “yl halide.” For example, as shown below, the IUPAC name ethanoyl chloride is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetyl chloride, is obtained from acetic acid.
