Abstract

In the title compound, C12H10O2, the aldehyde and meth­oxy groups are slightly twisted around the single bonds that join them to the naphthalene ring system. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked through inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the c axis.
