The title compound, C16H14, an asymmetric naphthyl-/methyl-substituted cyclopentadiene was synthesized and one isomer of five accessible through sigmatropic rearrangement was isolated and characterized by 1H NMR and X-ray diffraction. The crystal packing features an intermolecular C—H...π interaction.
