1-[2-(4-Fluoro-benz-yloxy)-2-phenyl-ethyl]-1H-benzimidazole.

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(22)H(19)FN(2)O, contains two independent mol-ecules. The planar benzimidazole ring systems are oriented with respect to the phen-yl/fluoro-benzene rings at dihedral angles of 31.10?(4)/45.17?(5) and 45.52?(5)/68.63?(5)°, respectively, for the two mol-ecules. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C-H?N and inter-molecular C-H?N and C-H?F hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network. There are C-H?? contacts between the benzimidazole and fluoro-benzene rings and a ?-? contact between the benzimidazole and phenyl ring systems [centroid-centroid distance = 4.575?(1)?Å].
