Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₅H₁₀F₂O₂S, the O atom and the methyl group of the methylsulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment. The 4-fluorophenyl ring is rotated out of the benzofuran plane by a dihedral angle of 28.09 (3)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular C-HO and C-HF hydrogen bonds.
