Abstract:
In the title compound, C(13)H(9)N(3)O(2)·C(3)H(7)NO, the benzimidazole ring system and the benzene ring are essentially coplanar, forming a dihedral angle of 0.86 (5)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by an inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond and a π-π stacking inter-action with a centroid-centroid separation of 3.685 (4) Å.
