5-Bromo-3-cyclo-hexyl-sulfonyl-2-methyl-1-benzofuran
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(15)H(17)BrO(3)S, the cyclo-hexyl ring adopts a practically undistorted chair conformation [endocyclic torsion angles are within a 54.5-56.4 (3)° range] and the aryl-sulfonyl unit is positioned equatorial relative to the cyclo-hexyl group. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked through C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and donor-acceptor Br⋯O contacts [3.250 (2) Å]. The crystal structure also exhibits aromatic π-π overlap between the benzene and furan rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.635 (2) Å].

Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are halogen-substituted alkanes wherein one or more hydrogen atoms of an alkane is replaced by a halogen atom such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The carbon atom in an alkyl halide is bonded to the halogen atom, which is sp3-hybridized and exhibits a tetrahedral shape.
Unlike alkyl halides, compounds in which a halogen atom is bonded to an sp2 -hybridized carbon atom of a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) are called vinyl halides. Whereas aryl...

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...
