Abstract:
In the title compound, C17H15ClO2S, the dihedral angle between the mean plane [r.m.s. deviation = 0.020 (2) Å] of the benzo-furan ring system and the mean plane [r.m.s. deviation = 0.011 (1) Å] of the 4-chloro-phenyl ring is 72.68 (6)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via pairs of C-H⋯π inter-actions into inversion dimers. These dimers are further packed by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into supra-molecular chains running along the a-axis direction. In addition, the crystal structure also exhibits π-π inter-actions between the 4-chloro-phenyl rings of adjacent mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distance = 4.094 (3) Å, inter-planar distance = 3.648 (3) Å and slippage = 1.656 (3) Å].

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...
