2-Methyl-5-nitro-1H-benzimidazole monohydrate.


ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(8)H(7)N(3)O(2)·H(2)O, the 2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-benzimidazole mol-ecule, excluding the methyl H atoms, is approximately planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.137?(1)?Å. The crystal structure is stabilized by water mol-ecules via N-H?O(water), O(water)-H?O and O(water)-H?N hydrogen bonds, forming sheets parallel to the (100) plane. A short inter-molecular contact between the benzene and imidazole rings, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.6419?(10)?Å, indicates a ?-? inter-action.
