Abstract:
In the title compound, C18H17BrO2S, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzo-furan [r.m.s. deviation = 0.025 (2) Å] and the 2-methyl-benzene rings is 87.87 (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into supra-molecular layers parallel to (0-11) by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and Br⋯Br [3.4521 (5) Å] contacts. These are connected into a three-dimensional architecture via C-H⋯π inter-actions, which link inversion-related mol-ecules into dimers, and π-π inter-actions between the benzene and furan rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.573 (2) Å].

Accordingly, the structure of a trivalent radical lies between the geometries of carbocations and carbanions. An sp2-hybridized carbocation is trigonal planar, while an sp3-hybridized carbanion is trigonal pyramidal. Here, the difference in geometry is...
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...
