3-(4-Bromo-phenyl-sulfin-yl)-5-fluoro-2-methyl-1-benzofuran.

ABSTRACT: There are two symmetry-independent mol-ecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrFO(2)S. The dihedral angle formed by the 4-bromo-phenyl ring and the mean plane of the benzofuran fragment is 88.26 (6)° in mol-ecule A and 88.25 (6)° in mol-ecule B. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯F, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions. The crystal structure also exhibits inter-molecular C-Br⋯π [3.737 (3) Å] inter-actions, and weak π-π inter-actions between the benzene and furan rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.557 (3) Å, inter-planar distance = 3.421 (3) Å and slippage = 0.974 (3) Å].
