Abstract:
In the title compound, C13H12O, the cyclopentene ring fused with the naphthalene group adopts an envelope conformation. The cyclopentene torsion angle, with the fusion bond at the centre, has a magnitude of 1.16 (16)°. In the crystal, neighbouring molecules are connected through O-H...O hydrogen bonds into an R44(8) ring motif. The crystal packing also features weak [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.8981 (8) Å] and C-H...[pi] interactions.
