Ethyl 2-(4-chloro-phen-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxyl-ate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(22)H(17)ClN(2)O(2), the essentially planar benzimidazole ring system [maximum deviation = 0.012 (2) Å] forms dihedral angles of 28.69 (6) and 63.65 (7)°, respectively, with the phenyl and chloro-substituted benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and benzene rings is 64.23 (8)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a zigzag chain along the a axis by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯π inter-actions are also present.
