The starting material 5-chloro-2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(4-methylphenylsulfanyl)-1-benzofuran was prepared by literature method (Choi et al. 1999). 3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (77%, 224 mg, 1.0 mmol) was added in small portions to a stirred solution of 5-chloro-2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(4-methylphenylsulfanyl)-1-benzofuran (285 mg, 0.9 mmol) in dichloromethane (25 mL) at 273 K. After being stirred at room temperature for 8h, the mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (2 X 10 mL) and the organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated at reduced pressure. The residue was purified by
(hexane–ethyl acetate, 2:1 v/v) to afford the title compound as a colorless solid [yield 68% (226 mg); m.p. 466–467 K; Rf = 0.43 (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 (23 mg) in acetone (15 mL) at room temperature.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, Uiso (H) = 1.2Ueq (C) for aryl and 1.5Ueq (C) for methyl H atoms.The positions of methyl hydrogens were optimized using the SHELXL-97's command AFIX 137 (Sheldrick, 2008).

Experimental. 1H NMR (δ p.p.m., CDCl3, 400 Hz): 7.34 (d, J = 8.24 Hz, 2H), 7.22 (d, J = 7.84 Hz, 2H), 7.19 (s, 1H), 2.71 (s, 3H), 2.43 (s, 3H), 2.37 (s, 3H), 2.32 (s, 3H). |
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. |

Substituted benzofurans show interesting pharmacological properties such as antibacterial and antifungal, antitumor and antiviral, antimicrobial activities (Aslam et al. 2009, Galal et al., 2009, Wahab Khan et al., 2005), and potential inhibitor of β-amyloid aggregation (Howlett et al., 1999, Ono et al., 2002). These benzofuran compounds occur in a great number of natural products. (Akgul & Anil, 2003, Soekamto et al., 2003). As a part of our ongoing project of 3-arylsulfinyl-5-chloro-2-methyl-1-benzofuran derivatives containing 4-bromophenylsulfinyl substituent in 3-position (Choi et al., 2012), 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 0.013 (1) Å from the least-squares plane defined by the nine constituent atoms. The 4-methylphenyl ring is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.003 (1) Å from the least-squares plane defined by the six constituent atoms. The dihedral angle formed by the benzofuran ring and the 4-methylphenyl ring is 87.37 (5)°. In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), molecules are linked by C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) and π–π interactions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring molecules, with a Cg1···Cg2iii distance of 3.525 (2) Å and an interplanar distance of 3.479 (2) Å resulting in a slippage of 0.568 (2) Å (Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C1/C2/C7/O1/C8 furan ring and the C2–C7 benzene ring, respectively). In the crystal (Fig. 2), an S1···S1iv [3.6584 (9) Å] contact are observed.
