2-(2,6-Di­chloro­phen­yl)-1-pentyl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole

The title compound, C₂₆H₂₄Cl₂N₂, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules (1 and 2) in the asymmetric unit. In mol­ecule 1, the two phenyl and 2,6-di­chloro­phenyl rings are inclined to the imidazole ring at angles of 74.12 (14), 26.13 (14) and 67.30 (14)°, respectively. In mol­ecule 2, due to the different mol­ecular environment in the crystal, the corresponding angles are different, viz. 71.72 (15), 16.14 (15) and 80.41 (15)°, respectively. In the crystal, mol­ecules 1 and 2 are linked by C—H...Cl inter­actions, and inversion-related 2 mol­ecules are linked by C—H...π inter­actions. There are no other significant inter­molecular inter­actions present.
