TL;DRAbstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(12)H(11)NO(2), inversion-related mol-ecules are linked into dimers by pairs of O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the hydr-oxy group and the pyridyl ring. In addition, a π-π inter-action [with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.78 (1) Å] is found between the two pyridyl rings of the dimer. The benzene ring forms a dihedral angle of 71.6 (1)° with the pyridine ring.
