Propyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methyl­sulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate

In the title compound, C(14)H(15)BrO(4)S, the S atom has a distorted trigonal–pyramidal coordination. The O atom and the methyl group of the methyl­sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The mol­ecules form slightly slipped π-stacked inversion-symmetric dimers by inter­molecular aromatic π–π inter­actions, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.695 (4) Å between the benzene rings of neighbouring mol­ecules. The crystal packing is further stabilized by inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions between the methyl­ene H atoms of the propyl group towards the benzene and furan rings of neighbouring mol­ecules, respectively. Additionally, the crystal structure exhibits weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
