Crystal structure of 1-(2,6-diiso-propyl-phen-yl)-1H-imidazole.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₅H₂₀N₂ or ^DippIm, is reported. At 106 (2) K, the mol-ecule has monoclinic P2₁/c symmetry with four mol-ecules in the unit cell. The imidazole ring is rotated 80.7 (1)° relative to the phenyl ring. Inter-molecular stabilization primarily results from close contacts between the N atom at the 3-position on the imidazole ring and the C-H bond at the 4-position on the neighboring ^DippIm, with ar-yl-aryl distances outside of the accepted distance of 5 Å for π-stacking.
