The 77% 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (247 mg, 1.1 mmol) was added in small portions to a stirred solution of isoamyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (371 mg, 1.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 ml) at 273 K. After being stirred for 4 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 0.91 (d, J = 6.6 Hz, 6H), 1.51-1.57 (m, 1H), 1.62-1.69 (m, 2H), 3.07 (s, 3H), 4.03 (s, 2H), 4.18 (t, J = 6.96 Hz, 2H), 7.39 (d, J = 8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.49 (dd, J = 8.8 Hz and J = 2.2 Hz, 1H), 8.09 (d, J = 1.84 Hz, 1H); EI-MS 388 [M+2], 386 [M+].
(hexane-ethyl acetate,1:2 v/v) to afford the title compound as a colorless solid [yield 79%, m.p. 387-388 K; Rf = 0.61 (hexane-ethyl acetate, 1;2 v/v )]. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were prepared by evaporation of a solution of the title compound in ethyl acetate 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 for the aryl, 0.97 Å for the methylene, 0.98 Å for the methine, and 0.96 Å for the methyl H atoms. Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for the aryl, methine and methylene H atoms, and 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms.

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. |

The benzofuran ring system has attracted considerable interest in view of their biological and pharmacological properties (Howlett et al., 1999; Ward, 1997). This work is related to our communications on the synthesis and structures of alkyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate analogues, viz. butyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2009a) and propyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2009b). Here we report the crystal structure of the title compound, isoamyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methyllsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Fig. 1).
The benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.015 (1) Å from the least-squares plane defined by the nine constituent atoms. The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by aromatic π···π interactions between the benzene rings from the adjacent molecules. The Cg···Cgii distance of 3.643 (2) Å (Cg is the centroid of C2-C7 benzene ring. symmetry code as in Fig. 2). The molecular packing is further stabilized by four different types of non-calssical C–H···O hydrogen bonds; the first between a benzene H atom and the S=O unit, the second between a benzene H atom and the C═O unit, the third between an H atom of the methylene group bonded to the carboxylate C atom and the S═O unit, the fourth between an H atom of the methylene group bonded to the carboxylate C atom and the furan O atom, respectively (Table 1 and Fig. 2; symmetry code as in Fig. 2).
