The title compound, C19H14O3S, was prepared by the oxidation of 2-methyl-1-(phenylsulfanyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 87.13 (4)° with the plane of the naphthofuran fragment. The is stabilized by π–π interactions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.850 (2) Å] and weak C—H⋯π interactions. In addition, there are also intramolecular C—H⋯O interactions.

3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (77%, 471 mg, 2.10 mmol) was added in small portions to a stirred solution of 2-methyl-1-(phenylsulfanyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan (290 mg, 1.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 ml) at 273 K. After having been stirred for 4 h at room temperature, the mixture was washed with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and the organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuum. The residue was purified by
(hexane-ethyl acetate, 2:1 v/v) to afford the title compound as a colourless solid [yield 84%, m.p. 431–432 K; Rf = 0.63 (hexane-ethyl acetate, 2:1 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. The average crystal size was approximately 1.0 × 1.0 × 0.5 mm. The crystals are colourless and soluble in polar solvents.All the H atoms were discernible in the difference Fourier map. Nevertheless, during the
the H atoms were positioned into idealized positions and refined using a riding model with the distance constraints: C—H = 0.95 Å for aryl H atoms and 0.98 Å for methyl H atoms, respectively, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(C) for aryl and methyl H atoms, respectively.Data collection: SMART (Bruker, 2001); cell

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

As a part of our ongoing studies on the synthesis and structure of 2-methylnaphtho[2,1-b]furan derivatives, the crystal structures of 2-methyl-1-(methylsulfinyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan (Choi et al., 2006) and 2-methyl-1-(phenylsulfinyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan (Choi et al., 2007) have already been described. Herein we report the molecular and the crystal structure of the title compound, 2-methyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan (Fig. 1).
The naphthofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation equal to 0.040 Å from the least-squares plane defined by thirteen constituent atoms. The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by aromatic π—π stacking interactions between the furan and the benzene rings from the adjacent naphthofuran fragments. The Cg1···Cg2i distance is 3.850 (2) Å (Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the O1/C12/C1/C2/C11 furan and the C2/C3/C8/C9/C10/C11 benzene rings, respectively, the symmetry code as in Fig. 2). The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is further stabilized by the C—H···π interactions; in both cases the benzene ring of the naphthofuran unit (Cg3) is involved. There are also intramolecular C—H···O interactions present in the structure.
