Abstract
The title compound, C17H15BrOS, was prepared by the Lewis acid-catalysed reaction of 2,4-dimethylphenol with 4′-bromo-2-chloro-2-(methylsulfanyl)acetophenone. The 4-bromophenyl ring is rotated slightly out of the benzofuran plane, making a dihedral angle of 8.4 (1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by a CH2—H⋯π interaction between the 5-methyl group and the benzene ring of the benzofuran system.
