The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H23ClN2O, comtains two independent molecules in which the fused-ring systems are essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane of each molecule being 0.011 (2) Å and 0.016 (2) Å. The benzimidazole rings of the two molecules make a dihedral angle of 66.65 (7)°. The nonyl substituents are almost perpendicular to the benzimidazole planes [C—N—C—C tosrsion angles = 96.0 (3) and 81.0 (2)°]. In the crystal, each independent molecule forms an inversion dimer via a pair of N—H[cdots, three dots, centered]O hydrogen bonds. In one of the independent molecules, the terminal –CH2–CH3 group of the alkyl chain is disordered over two sets of sites with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.746 (7):0.254 (7).
In the molecular structure of the title compound, C21H18N2O, the fused-ring system is essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.0121 (9) Å. The O atom and adjacent C atom are located in Wyckoff position 4e on a twofold axis (0, y, 1/4). The two benzyl groups are almost perpendicular to the benzimidazole plane, but point in opposite directions. The dihedral angle between the benzimidazole mean plane and the phenyl ring is 81.95 (5)°, whereas that between the two benzyl groups is 60.96 (7)°.
The title molecule, C17H25N3O3, is built up from fused six- and five-membered rings linked to a –C10H21 chain. The fused-ring system is essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.009 (2) Å. The chain is roughly perpendicular to this plane, making a dihedral angle of 79.5 (2)°. In the crystal, N—H[cdots, three dots, centered]O hydrogen bonds build infinite chains along [010]. There are channels in the structure containing disordered hexane. The contribution of this solvent to the scattering power was suppressed using the SQUEEZE option in PLATON [Spek (2009 [triangle]). Acta Cryst. D65, 148–155].
The fused five- and six-membered rings in the title compound, C14H12N2O, are essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.023 (2) Å. The dihedral angle between the benzimidazole mean plane and the phenyl ring is 68.50 (6)°. In the crystal, each molecule is linked to its symmetry equivalent created by a crystallographic inversion center by pairs of N—H[cdots, three dots, centered]O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers.
The two fused five- and six-membered rings building the molecule of the title compound, C13H10BrN3, are approximately planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.004 (2) Å. The dihedral angle between the imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine mean plane and that of the phenyl ring is 41.84 (11)°. The structure is held together by slipped π–π stacking between symmetry-related molecules, with an interplanar distance of 3.583 (1) Å and a centroid–centroid vector of 3.670 (2) Å.
