title: 5-Bromo-3-(4-fluoro-phenyl-sulfin-yl)-2-methyl-1-benzofuran.
abstract: In the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrFO(2)S, the O atom and the 4-fluoro-phenyl group of the 4-fluoro-phenyl-sulfinyl substituent are located on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment; the 4-fluoro-phenyl ring is approximately perpendicular to this plane [dihedral angle = 89.38 (6)°]. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by a Br⋯Br contact [3.4816 (5) Å], and weak inter-molecular C-S⋯π [3.499 (2) Å] and C-F⋯π [3.535 (2) Å] inter-actions.
