In the title compound, C(23)H(19)FO(5)S(2), two of the phenyl ring C atoms and a sulfonyl O atom of the phenyl(methylsulfonyl) group are disordered over two positions with occupancies 0.522 (17):0.478 (17). The methyl-phenyl and fluoro-phenyl rings are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.0059 (8) and 0.0047 (9) Å, respectively. The crystal packing is stabilized by C-H⋯F inter-actions.
