1-[2-(3,4-Dichlorobenzyloxy)-2-phenylethyl]-1H-benzimidazole

Abstract

In the molecule of the title compound, C22H18Cl2N2O, the planar benzimidazole ring system is oriented with respect to the phenyl and dichlorobenzene rings at dihedral angles of 12.73 (3) and 36.57 (4)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the dichlorobenzene and phenyl rings is 29.95 (6)°. There are C—H...π contacts between the benzimidazole and dichlorobenzene rings, between the benzimidazole and phenyl rings, and between a methylene group and the dichlorobenzene ring.
