Abstract
In the title compound, C21H18O5, the dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring is 86.65 (6)°. The bridging carbonyl C—C(=O)—C plane makes dihedral angles of 83.57 (7) and 20.21 (8)°, respectively, with the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring. The ester O—C=O plane and the benzene ring are almost coplanar, making a dihedral angle of 3.81 (18)°. The two methoxy groups lie essentially in the naphthalene ring plane [C—O—C—C torsion angles = 2.1 (2) and −1.44 (19)°]. In the crystal structure, a centrosymmetric dimer is formed through C—H...O bonds connecting the 7-methoxy group and the carbonyl O atom of the ester group. The dimers are further linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds between the methoxycarbonyl group and the bridging carbonyl O atomKeywords
