1-[2-(2,6-Dichloro­benz­yloxy)-2-(2-fur­yl)eth­yl]-1H-benzimidazole

In the mol­ecule of the title compound, C(20)H(16)Cl(2)N(2)O(2), the planar benzimidazole ring system is oriented with respect to the furan and dichloro­benzene rings at dihedral angles of 53.39 (6) and 31.04 (5)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into centrosymmetric R (2) (2)(8) dimers. These dimers are connected via a C—H⋯π contact between the benzimidazole and the furan rings, and π–π contacts between the benz­imidazole and dichloro­benzene ring systems [centroid–centroid distances = 3.505 (1), 3.567 (1), 3.505 (1) and 3.567 (1) Å].
