Crystal structure of 5-chloro-2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(4-methyl­phenyl­sulfin­yl)-1-benzo­furan

In the title compound, C(18)H(17)ClO(2)S, the dihedral angle between the planes of the benzo­furan ring [r.m.s. deviation = 0.013 (1) Å] and the 4-methyl­phenyl ring is 87.37 (5)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring mol­ecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.525 (2) Å]. In addition, an S⋯S [3.6584 (9) Å] contact is observed.
