Abstract:
In the title compound, C(21)H(22)O(2)S, the cyclo-pentyl ring adopts an envelope conformation with the flap atom connected to the benzofuran residue. The benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation from the least-squares plane defined by the nine constituent ring atoms of 0.008 (2) Å. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming inversion dimers. In the ring of the 4-methyl-phenyl group, four C atoms and their attached H atoms are disordered over two sets of sites, with site-ccupancy factors of 0.899 (5) and 0.10.

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...
