1-(4-Bromophenylsulfonyl)-2-methylnaphtho[2,1-b]furan

Abstract

In the title compound, C19H13BrO3S, the 4-bromophenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 64.11 (2)° with the mean plane [r.m.s. deviation = 0.01 (2) Å] of the naphthofuran ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...O and C—H...π interactions. The crystal structure also exhibits slipped π–π interactions between the central naphthofuran benzene rings of neighbouring molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.559 (2), slippage = 1.036 (2) Å], and between the central naphthofuran benzene ring and the furan ring of neighbouring molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.655 (2), slippage = 1.136 (2) Å].
