Abstract: The title compound, C₁₅H₁₈O₄S, was prepared by the oxidation of isopropyl 2-(5-methyl-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular - interactions between the benzene rings; the centroid-centroid distance between the adjacent benzene rings (symmetry code: ) is 3.713 (2) Å. In addition, C-H and weak intermolecular C-HO interactions are present in the structure.
