5-[4-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)phen-yl]-2H-tetra-zole dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(10)H(8)N(6)·2H(2)O, the central aromatic ring makes dihedral angles of 23.59?(15) and 16.99?(16)° with the terminal imidazole and tetra-zole rings, respectively, which are themselves almost coplanar [dihedral angle = 6.61?(18)°]. Two H atoms of the two water mol-ecules are half occupied. In the crystal packing, weak inter-molecular O-H?N, O-H?O and N-H?N hydrogen bonds and ?-? stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances of 3.73?(4)?Å between benzene rings and 3.66?(3)?Å between imidazole and tetra-zole rings] are observed.
