The title compound, C16H13IO3S, was prepared by the oxidation of 5-iodo-2,7-dimethyl-3-phenylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 76.31 (8)° with the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by aromatic [pi]-[pi] interactions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring molecules, and between the benzene rings of neighbouring molecules; the centroid-centroid distances within the stack are 3.700 (4) and 3.788 (4) Å. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits inter- and intramolecular C-H...O interactions, and an I...O halogen bond with an I...O distance of 3.282 (2) Å and a nearly linear C-I...O angle of 165.69 (8)°.
