3-(1H-Imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)benzonitrile methanol solvate
Abstract
In the title compound, C20H11N5·CH3OH, the benzene ring is twisted by a small dihedral angle of 1.89 (11)° with respect to the imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline ring system. N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
