The title compound, C(15)H(12)O(2)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 2-methyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic 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 makes a dihedral angle of 78.76 (4)° with the benzofuran mean plane. The crystal structure is stabilized by π-π inter-actions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid dis ...[more]
