The title compound, C12H11ClO4S, was prepared by the oxidation of methyl 2-(5-chloro-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The O atom and the methyl group of the methylsulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The is stabilized by aromatic π–π interactions between the benzene rings of neighbouring molecules [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.809 (2) Å], and by C—H⋯π interactions between a methyl H atom and the furan ring of an adjacent molecule. In addition, the exhibits intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

77% 3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (292 mg, 1.3 mmol) was added in small portions to a stirred solution of methyl 2-(5-chloro-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (325 mg, 1.2 mmol) in dichloromethane (40 ml) at 273 K. After being stirred for 3 h at room temperature, the mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and the organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuum. The residue was purified by δ 3.07 (s, 3H), 3.75 (s, 3H), 4.05 (s, 2H), 7.34 (dd, J = 8.76 Hz and J = 1.80 Hz, 1H), 7.44 (d, J = 8.80 Hz, 1H), 7.90 (d, J = 1.80 Hz, 1H); EI–MS 288 [M+2], 286[M+].
(ethyl acetate) to afford the title compound as a colorless solid [yield 77%, m.p. 415–416 K; Rf = 0.72 (ethyl acetate)]. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were prepared by evaporation of a solution of the title compound in benzene at room temperature. Spectroscopic analysis: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz)All H atoms were geometrically positioned and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 Å (aromatic), 0.97 Å (methylene), and 0.96 Å (methyl) H atoms, respectively, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) (aromatic & methylene), and 1.5Ueq(C) (methyl) H atoms.

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. |

Benzofuran derivatives occur widely in natural products and show a variety of interesting pharmacological activities such as antimicrobial, fungicidal, insecticidal and antioxidant properties (Ward, 1999). As a part of our ongoing studies on the synthesis and structure of 2-(3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetic acid analogues, the crystal structure of ethyl 2-(5-chloro-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2007) and methyl 2-(5-methyl-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2008) have been described in the literature. Here we report the crystal structure of the title compound, methyl 2-(5-chloro-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Fig. 1).
The benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.011 (2) Å from the least-squares plane defined by the nine constituent atoms. The molecular packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by aromatic π–π stacking interactions between the benzene rings of adjacent molecules. The Cg2···Cg2ii distance is 3.809 (2) Å (Cg2 is the centroid of the C2–C7 benzene ring; symmetry code as in Fig. 2). The molecular packing is further stabilized by C—H···π interactions between a methyl H atom and the furan ring of the benzofuran uint, with a C11—H11C···Cg1i separation of 2.92 Å (Fig. 2 and Table 1; Cg1 is the centroid of the C1/C2/C7/O1/C8 furan ring). Additionally, intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds in the structure were observed (Table 1).
