3-1-(3-Hy­droxy­benz­yl)-1H-benzimid­azol-2-ylphenol dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate

摘要

Crystals of the title compound were obtained as a 1:1 dimethyl sulfoxide solvate, C20H16N2O2·C2H6O. The mol­ecular conformation of the organic mol­ecule is similar to that in the previously reported unsolvated structure [Eltayeb et al. (2009). Acta Cryst. E>65, o1374–o1375]. Thus, the dihedral angles formed by the benzimidazole moiety with the two benzene rings are 57.54 (4) and 76.22 (5)°, and the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 89.23 (5)°. In the crystal, a three-dimensional network features O—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and O—H⋯S hydrogen bonds, as well as C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions.
