In the crystal, supra-molecular chains mediated by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding are formed along the a-axis direction. These are consolidated in the crystal structure by C-H⋯O contacts.en2-C-Phenylerythrono-1,4-lactoneJournal article002009406510.1107/S16005368090484780002722936000922-s2.0-7204913341036571Taylor, D.
