Abstract

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(13)H(12)O, the two aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 2.90 (3)°. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond results in the formation of a non-planar six-membered ring, which adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules.
