5-Ethyl-2-methyl-3-phenyl-sulfonyl-1-benzofuran
Abstract:
The title compound, C(17)H(16)O(3)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 5-ethyl-2-methyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 75.94 (8)° with the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by π-π inter-actions between the furan rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.620 (4) Å]. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits C-H⋯π inter-actions.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
