Ethyl 1-sec-butyl-2-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxyl-ate
Abstract:
In the title mol-ecule, C(20)H(22)N(2)O(2), the benzimidazole ring system is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.024 (1) Å. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and benzimidazole ring system is 43.71 (5)°. The atoms of the butyl group are disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies of 0.900 (4) and 0.100 (4). In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are connected by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the b axis. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
