1-(4-Methyl-1-naphthyl)ethanone
Abstract
In the molecule of the title compound, C13H12O, the two aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 2.90 (3)°. An intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond results in the formation of a non-planar six-membered ring, which adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules.
