5-Chloro-3-cyclohexylsulfinyl-2,7-dimethyl-1-benzofuran

In the title compound, C16H19ClO2S, the cyclohexyl ring adopts a chair conformation and the arylsulfinyl unit is positioned equatorial relative to the cyclohexyl group. The least-squares plane through all six C atoms of the cyclohexyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 74.80 (6)degrees with the mean plane of the benzofuran fragment. In the crystal, molecules are linked through intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds.
