In the title compound, C14H9F3N2, the mean planes of the benzimidazole ring system and the trifluoromethyl-substituted benzene ring form a dihedral angle of 30.1 (1)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—HN hydrogen bonds into chains along [010]. Weak C—HF hydrogen bonds and a weak C—Hπ interaction connect the chains into a two-dimensional network parallel to (001).
