In the title compound, C18H20O4S, the thiophene and benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 10.83 (11)°. The central chain makes dihedral angles of 1.86 (13) and 9.25 (12)° with the benzene and thiophene rings, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked through weak intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions. π–π interactions are also observed between the benzene rings with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6832 (12) Å. The slippage between the benzene rings is 0.956 Å
