There have only been three (or possibly four) such presidents.
The certain ones are Rutherford B Hayes (1876), Benjamin Harrison (1888) and George W. Bush (2000).
The probable case is John Quincy Adams (1824), who was behind Andrew Jackson in the popular vote, but only in those states which used the popular vote to determine presidential electors. At that time several states, including important ones such as New York, did not do so, but allowed the Legislature to choose Electors. There is no way to tell how a nationwide popular vote would have gone.
