5-Fluoro-2-(2-fluorophenyl)-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran

Abstract

In the title compound, C15H10F2O2S, the dihedral angle between the plane of the benzofuran ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.015 Å) and that of the 2-fluorophenyl ring is 28.53 (6)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O and C—H...F hydrogen bonds, and by π–π interactions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.625 (2) Å], forming a three-dimensional network.
