3-(2-Fluorophenylsulfinyl)-2,5,7-trimethyl-1-benzofuran
Abstract
In the title compound, C17H15FO2S, the benzofuran ring system, being essentially planar, with an r.m.s. deviation from the least-squares plane of 0.009 (2) Å, makes a dihedral angle of 79.02 (5)° with the plane of the 2-fluorophenyl group. In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds into centrosymmetric dimers.
