In the title compound, C₁₅H₁₀BrFO₂S, the O atom and the 4-fluorophenyl group of the 4-fluorophenylsulfinyl substituent are located on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment; the 4-fluorophenyl ring is approximately perpendicular to this plane [dihedral angle = 89.38 (6)°]. In the crystal, molecules are linked by a BrBr contact [3.4816 (5) Å], and weak intermolecular C-S [pi] [3.499 (2) Å] and C-F [pi] [3.535 (2) Å] interactions.
