2-(2-Fluoro-phen-yl)-5-iodo-7-methyl-3-methyl-sulfinyl-1-benzo-furan.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C16H12FIO2S, the dihedral angle between the plane of the benzo-furan ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.023 Å) and that of the 2-fluoro-phenyl ring is 39.78 (7)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of I⋯π contacts [3.812 (2) Å] and a π-π inter-action between the benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.821 (2) Å] into inversion dimers. These dimers are further linked by π-π inter-actions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.668 (2) Å]. The mol-ecules stack along the a-axis direction. In addition, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed between inversion-related dimers.
