3-(4-Chloro­phenyl­sulfin­yl)-2,5,7-tri­methyl-1-benzofuran

In the title compound, C(17)H(15)ClO(2)S, the O atom and the 4-chloro­phenyl group of the 4-chloro­phenyl­sulfinyl substituent are located on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment; the 4-chloro­phenyl ring is approximately perpendicular to this plane [dihedral angle = 87.12 (3)°]. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked through a weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, and by weak C—S⋯π [3.394 (2) Å] and C—Cl⋯π [3.800 (2) Å] inter­actions.
