Description
Summary:The title compound, C15H18O4S, was prepared by the oxidation of isopropyl 2-(5-methyl-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular π–π interactions between the benzene rings; the centroid–centroid distance between the adjacent benzene rings (symmetry code: 1-x, 1-y, 1-z) is 3.713 (2) Å. In addition, C—H...π and weak intermolecular C—H...O interactions are present in the structure.
