In the title compound, C16H13FO2S, the 4-methyl­phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 29.53 (4)° with the mean plane of the benzofuran fragment [r.m.s. deviation = 0.004 (1) Å]. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by pairs of weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers that stack along the a axis.

Comment top

As a part of our ongoing study of 5-fluoro-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran derivatives with various substituents in the 2-position, such as 4-bromophenyl (Choi et al., 2009a) or 4-iodophenyl (Choi et al., 2009b), we report herein on the crystal structure of the title compound.

In the title molecule (Fig. 1), the benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.004 (1) Å from the mean plane defined by the nine constituent atoms. The dihedral angle between the 4-methylphenyl ring and the mean plane of the benzofuran ring is 29.53 (4)°.

In the crystal, molecules are connected by a pair of weak C—H···O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers that stack along the a axis (Table 1).

Experimental top

3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (77%, 269 mg, 1.2 mmol) was added in small portions to a stirred solution of 5-fluoro-2-(4-methylphenyl)-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran (326 mg, 1.1 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 mL) at 273 K. After being stirred at room temperature for 4h, the mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and the organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated at reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane–ethyl acetate, 1:1 v/v) to afford the title compound as a colorless solid [yield 73%, m.p. 417–418 K; Rf = 0.45 (hexane–ethyl acetate, 1:1 v/v)]. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were prepared by slow evaporation of a solution of the title compound in acetone at room temperature.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.95 Å for aryl and 0.98 Å for methyl H atoms, respectively. Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aryl and = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms. The positions of methyl hydrogens were optimized rotationally.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
