5-Chloro-2-methylsulfanyl-6-(naphthalen-1-yloxy)-1H-benzimidazole methanol monosolvate

Abstract

Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 298 K; mean (C-C) = 0.004 Å; R factor = 0.049; wR factor = 0.112; data-to-parameter ratio = 17.2.In the title compound, C 18 H 13 ClN 2 OSÁCH 3 OH, the dihedral angle between the benzimidazole group and the naphthyloxy moiety [82.89 (5) ] very near to orthogonality. The H atom in the five-membered ring is disordered with equal occupancies at the two N atoms and the H atom of the methanolic hydroxy group is disordered with equal occupancies over two sites at the O atom. The methanol molecule acts as a hydrogen-bond acceptor for the amino H atom and donates a hydrogen bond to the nonprotonated ring N atom. As a result, chains are formed running along the a axis.
