In the title compound, C14H12O5, the benzopyran-2-one ring system is approximately planar [maximum deviation = 0.018 (1) Å]; the mean plane is oriented at dihedral angles of 52.26 (11) and 72.92 (7)°, respectively, to the acetyl and acetoxy groups. In the crystal, π–π stacking is observed between parallel benzene rings of adjacent molecules, the centroid–centroid distance being 3.6774 (17) Å. Intermolecular weak C—H...O hydrogen bonding, and C=O...C=O [O...C = 3.058 (3) Å] and C=O...π [O...centroid = 3.328 (2) Å] interactions occur in the crystal structure.
