2-[2-(2-Nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl]-3-phenylpropan-1-ol

Abstract

In the title compound, C30H25N3O3, the central imidazole ring forms dihedral angles of 77.34 (6), 12.56 (6) and 87.04 (6)°, respectively, with the o-nitrobenzene ring and the phenyl substituents in the 5- and 4-positions. The molecular conformation is stabilized by weak intramolecular C—H...π interactions. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming chains running parallel to the b-axis direction.
