In the title compound, C20H14, a naphthalene ring system is linked at the 2-position to the 2-C atom of the five-membered ring of an azulene unit. The compound crystallizes with two reasonably similar molecules in the asymmetric unit. Neither molecule is perfectly planar: the r.m.s. deviations from...

| description | In the title compound, C20H14, a naphthalene ring system is linked at the 2-position to the 2-C atom of the five-membered ring of an azulene unit. The compound crystallizes with two reasonably similar molecules in the asymmetric unit. Neither molecule is perfectly planar: the r.m.s. deviations from the best fit planes through all non-H atoms are 0.092 and 0.091 Å for the two molecules. The dihedral angle between the molecular planes is 49.60 (4)°. The naphthalene and azulene ring systems are inclined at dihedral angles of 6.54 (12) and 5.68 (12)° in the two molecules. The crystal structure exhibits two sets of parallel layers, a typical edge-to-face herringbone packing arrangement. The structure is stabilized by an extensive series of weak C—H...π interactions. |
