In the title compound, C15H10ClFO2S, the O atom and the methyl group of the methylsulfinyl substituent are located on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment. The 4-chlorophenyl ring is rotated out of the benzofuran plane, as indicated by the dihedral angle of 21.04 (4)°. The crystal structure exhibits a weak intermolecular C-H
O hydrogen bond and a Cl
O halogen bond [Cl
O = 3.254 (1) Å].
