Abstract:
In the title compound, C14H16N2O4·H2O, three substituent groups are located on the same side of the benzimidazole ring plane. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking between parallel imidazole rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.858 (4) Å] link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional supra-molecular structure.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.
