Abstract
The title compound, C22H15BrO3S, crystallizes with four molecules in the asymmetric unit. The 4-bromophenyl rings are rotated out of the benzofuran planes, with dihedral angles for the four molecules of 20.8 (2), 17.8 (2), 23.5 (4) and 23.9 (4)°. The dihedral angles between the 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl ring and the benzofuran plane are 13.5 (2), 7.1 (2), 18.6 (3) and 14.2 (3)° in the four molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak nonclassical intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure also exhibits intermolecular aromatic π–π interactions between the benzene and furan rings and between the 4-bromophenyl and 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl rings from molecules of the same type; the centroid–centroid distances are 3.92 (1) and 3.79 (1), 3.91 (1), 3.77 (1) and 3.77 (1), and 3.79 (1) and 3.75 (1)Å in the four molecules.
