The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C21H18O2S, consists of two crystallographically independent mol­ecules (A and B). The mol­ecules exist in a trans conformation with respect to the central C=C bond. The naphthalene ring system makes dihedral angles of 51.62 (12) (mol­ecule A) and 52.69 (12)° (mol­ecule B) with the benzene ring. In mol­ecule A, the prop-2-en-1-one group forms dihedral angles of 22.84 (15) and 29.02 (12)° with the adjacent naphthalene ring system and benzene ring, respectively, whereas the corresponding angles are 30.04 (12) and 23.33 (12)° in mol­ecule B. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds into head-to-tail chains along the a axis. The crystal packing also features C—H...π inter­actions. The crystal studied was a pseudo-merohedral twin with twin law (100 0-10 00-1) and a refined component ratio of 0.6103 (16):0.3897 (16).
