The title compound, C(16)H(13)IO(2)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 5-iodo-2,7-dimethyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran using 3-chloro-perbenzoic acid. The O atom and the phenyl group of the phenyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran system. The phenyl ring is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the benzofuran fragment [89.15 (5)°]. The crystal structure is stabilized by an I⋯O halogen bond [I⋯O = 3.177 (2) Å and C-I⋯O = 175.68 (6)°] linking mol-ecules in ...[more]
