Abstract
The title molecule, C17H26N2O, adopts an L-shaped conformation, with the straight n-decyl chain positioned nearly perpendicular to the dihydrobenzimidazole moiety. The dihydrobenzimidazole portion is not quite planar as there is a dihedral angle of 1.20 (6)° between the constituent planes. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds form inversion dimers, which are connected into the three-dimensional structure by C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π(ring) interactions. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H...H (75.9%), H...C/C...H (12.5%) and H...O/O...H (7.0%) interactions. Based on computational chemistry using the CE–B3LYP/6–31 G(d,p) energy model, C—H...O hydrogen bond energies are −74.9 (for N—H...O) and −42.7 (for C—H...O) kJ mol−1.
