5-Bromo-3-cyclohexylsulfinyl-2,4,6-trimethyl-1-benzofuran

In the title compound, C17H21BrO2S, the cyclohexyl ring adopts a chair conformation and the arylsulfinyl unit is positioned equatorially relative to the cyclohexyl group. The benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.016 (2) Å. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...O, C—H...π and Br...π [3.663 (2) Å] interactions, resulting in a three-dimensional network. A Br...Br [3.6838 (6) Å] contact is observed. The O atom of the sulfinyl group is disordered over two orientations with an occupancy ratio of 0.863 (5):0.137 (5).
