The two six-membered rings of the naphthalene-1,4-dione unit are coplanar [maximum deviation = 0.009 (1) ]. The O and C atoms of the methoxy substituent also lie close to the naphthalene plane, with deviations of 0.0090 (2) and 0.047 (2) , respectively. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536811009883
