1-(2,6-Diiso­propyl­phen­yl)-1H-benzimidazole

In the title compound, C19H22N2, both the benzimidazole unit and the 2,6-diiso­propyl­phenyl group are essentially planar [maximum deviations from the least-squares planes of 0.005 (1) and 0.009 (1) Å, respectively]. The dihedral angle between the two planes is 79.6 (7)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, C19H22N2, both the benzimidazole unit and the 2,6-diiso­propyl­phenyl group are essentially planar [maximum deviations from the least-squares planes of 0.005 (1) and 0.009 (1) Å, respectively]. The dihedral angle between the two planes is 79.6 (7)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked into chains along the a-axis direction by weak C—H⋯N inter­actions. The crystal structure also features C—H⋯π inter­actions, which link the chains into a three-dimensional network.
