5-Fluoro-2-methyl-3-(3-methyl-phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1-benzo-furan.
In the title compound, C16H13FO3S, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzo-furan ring system and the 3-methyl-phenyl ring is 80.96 (4)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of π-π inter-actions between furan and benzene rings, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.758 (1) and 3.771 (1) Å. A similar inter-action is found between furan rings, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.661 (1) Å between neighbouring mol-ecules. The mol-ecules stack along the a-axis direction. In addition, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π hydrogen bonds are observed between inversion-related dimers.
