Numerical answer type, tolerance 0.5.
Answer: 3
Three sets qualify: the COOH hydrogen, the phenolic OH hydrogen (pKa about 9 to 10 even with the ortho acyl group), and the two CH2 hydrogens of the 1,3-diketone unit (pKa about 9 to 10). The CH3 hydrogens (pKa about 20) and the three aromatic hydrogens are not acidic enough. Number = 3.
