Özet
The benzimidazole and anthracene moieties in the title compound, C21H14N2, are oriented at a dihedral angle of 46.00 (2)°. In the crystal, N-H· · ·N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into infinite chains along the b-axis direction. In addition, C-H· · ·π interactions contribute to the consolidation of the packing. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H· · ·H (47.2%) and H· · ·/C· · ·H (39.4%) interactions. An energy-framework calculation indicates that the electrostatic and dispersion energies are the most important contributors to the packing.
