3-Methyl-sulfinyl-2-phenyl-1-benzofuran.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(15)H(12)O(2)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 3-methyl-sulfanyl-2-phenyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 37.65?(8)° with the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The O atom and the methyl group of the methyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran ring system. The crystal structure is stabilized by aromatic ?-? inter-actions between the benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.549?(2)?Å] and by inter-molecular C-H?O inter-actions.
