In the title compound, [CuI(C8H8N2S)(C18H15P)2]·CH3OH, the coordination environment around the CuI atom is distorted tetrahedral, defined by two P atoms of two triphenylphosphane ligands, one S atom of a 5-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-2(3H)-thione ligand and one I atom. The complex molecules and the methanol solvent molecules are connected via N—HO and O—HI hydrogen bonds, forming a chain along [010]. An intramolecular N—HI hydrogen bond is also observed.
