organic compounds
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H11IO3, contains two independent molecules. The naphthalene ring systems of the molecules have average deviations from planarity of 0.029 (13) and 0.017 (9) Å with maximum deviations of 0.042 (11) and 0.034 (9) Å, respectively. The methyl parts of the methoxy groups are anti to the neighboring α-C atoms and are nearly coplanar with the rings, with C—C—O—C torsion angles of −8.1 (15) and −3.7 (10)° in the two molecules. The dihedral angles between the naphthalene ring system and the acetate group in each molecule are 109.9 (2) and 114.6 (2)°.
