RESUMEN
The title compound, C13H8O3, crystallizes in two polymorphs, namely the monoclinic (space group P21/c) and triclinic (space group Pi) forms, obtained from N,N-di-methyl-formamide and isopropyl alcohol solutions, respectively. The mol-ecular structures and conformations in the two forms are essentially the same as each other. The naphtho-quinone ring systems are essentially planar with r.m.s. deviations of 0.015 and 0.029â Å for the monoclinic and triclinic forms, respectively. The O-propargyl groups are coplanar with the naphtho-quinone units with r.m.s deviations ranging from 0.04 to 0.09â Å. In the monoclinic crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds, forming a tape structure running along [120]. The tapes are further linked by a C-Hâ¯π inter-action into a layer parallel to the ab plane. Adjacent layers are linked by another C-Hâ¯π inter-action. In the triclinic crystal, mol-ecules are linked via C-Hâ¯O and π-π inter-actions, forming a layer parallel to the ab plane. Adjacent layers are linked by a C-Hâ¯π inter-action.
