title: 5-Bromo-3-ethyl-sulfinyl-2-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1-benzofuran.
abstract: In the title compound, C(16)H(12)BrFO(2)S, the 4-fluoro-phenyl ring is rotated out of the benzofuran plane, as indicated by the dihedral angle of 5.94 (5)°. The crystal structure exhibits aromatic π-π inter-actions between the benzene ring and the 4-fluoro-phenyl ring of an adjacent mol-ecule [centroid-centroid distance = 3.632 (2) Å], and a Br⋯O halogen bond with a Br⋯O distance of 3.101 (1) Å.
