2-(Naphthalen-1-yl)ethanol

The title compound, C12H11OH, crystallizes with two molecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit with different conformations of the ethanol side chain; one is gauche [torsion angle = 59.58 (17)°] and the other is anti [176.20 (13)°]. In the crystal, [100] chains of alternating A and B molecules are l...

Summary:The title compound, C12H11OH, crystallizes with two molecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit with different conformations of the ethanol side chain; one is gauche [torsion angle = 59.58 (17)°] and the other is anti [176.20 (13)°]. In the crystal, [100] chains of alternating A and B molecules are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds.
