Crystal structure of methyl 2-[5-(2-hy­droxy­phen­yl)-2H-tetra­zol-2-yl]acetate

The title compound, C10H10N4O3, was synthesized by the esterification of hy-droxy-phenyl tetra-zole. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond present involving the hy-droxy group and the tetra-zole ring. The tetra-zole ring is inclined to the phenol ring by 2.85 (13)°, while the methyl acetate group is almost normal to the tetra-zole ring, making a dihedral angle of 82.61 (14)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by pairs of C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. Within the dimers, the phenol rings are linked by offset π-π inter-actions [inter-centroid distance = 3.759 (2) Å]. There are no further significant inter-molecular inter-actions present in the crystal. The hy-droxy group is disordered about positions 2 and 6 on the benzene ring, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.531 (5):0.469 (5).
