2-(1H-Benzimidazol-1-yl)-1-(furan-2-yl)-ethanone O-2,4-dichlorobenzyloxime

Abstract

In the title compound, C20H15Cl2N3O2, intra­molecular C-H...O hydrogen bonding causes the formation of a planar six-membered ring, which is also coplanar with the adjacent furan ring. The benzimidazole ring system is also planar and is oriented with respect to the coplanar ring system at a dihedral angle of 81.74 (10)°. The benzene ring is oriented with respect to the coplanar ring and benzimidazole ring systems at dihedral angles of 87.75 (15) and 84.24 (12)°, respectively. The oxime unit has an E configuration.
