The title compound, C11H9NO3, contains an isoxazole and a hydroxybenzylidene ring, which are inclined to each another by 3.18 (8)°. There is an intramolecular C—H...O contact forming an S(7) ring. In the crystal, molecules stack head-to-tail in columns along the b-axis direction, linked by offset π–π interactions [intercentroid distances of 3.676 (1) and 3.723 (1) Å]. The columns are linked by O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ab plane. The layers are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a supramolecular three-dimensional framework. An analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces points to the importance of the O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonding in the packing mechanism of the crystal structure.
