description

The molecule of the title compound, C5H5BO4, is almost planar with the boronic acid group inclined to the furan ring by 3.7 (1)°. DFT (density functional theory) calculations at the B3LYP/6-311+G** level of theory (with no imaginary frequencies) were used to approximate the influence of hydrogen bonding on the molecular geometry and have confirmed the planarity of the mol­ecule. No significant differences in geometrical parameters in the solid state and in the gas phase are associated with the presence of the O—H⋯O intermolecular hydrogen-bonding network. The crystal packing is characterized by O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonded dimers, which are additionally linked by O—H⋯O, as well as C—H⋯O interactions, resulting in the formation of a three-dimensional network.
