In the structure of the title compound, C20H16N4·CH4O, the aniline ring forms dihedral angles of 89.9 (2) and 85.4 (2)° with the benzimidazole and benzene rings, respectively. The orientation of the aniline ring is mainly determined by strong hydrogen bonds between the amino group and the non-fused quinazoline N atom. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the N-H
N-H
N type along [010] and the N-H
O-H
N type along [100] are formed, resulting in C22(4) and C22(10) descriptors, respectively, on a binary level of graph-set analysis. There are C-H
contacts with H
distances of 2.44 Å; however, no
-stacking is observed.
All chemicals used (reagent grade) were commercially available. A mass of 1.22 g (0.010 mol) of 2-aminobenzaldehyde was dissolved in methanol (50 cm3), and 2.09 g (0.010 mol) of 2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-benzimidazole was added with stirring. The mixture was heated under reflux for 2 h, then cooled to room temperature and filtered. The volume of the solution was reduced to ~ 10 cm3, and left to evaporate slowly at room temperature. After 2 days 2.48 g (72%) of colourless crystals, with the formulation C20H16N4.CH4O and suitable for X-ray analysis, were collected. M.p. 211°C. 1H NMR (300 MHz, d6-DMSO): 7.97 (1H,d), 7.62 (1H, d), 7.27 (1H, d), 7.25 (1H,t), 7.13 (2H, t), 6.97–7.02 (2H, m), 6.94 (1H, t), 6.86 (1H, t), 6.78 (1H, d), 6.61 (1H, d), 6.54(1H, t), 5.45 (2H, s), 3.18 (3H, s).
All H atoms bonded to C atoms were calculated in idealized position and refined as riding on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) values of 1.2 Ueq(C). All H atoms bonded to N and O atoms were refined freely with individual Uiso(H) values.

In the present work the structure of 2-(2,3,5,6-tetrahydrobenzimidazo[1,2-c]quinazolin-5-yl)benzenamine (Figure 1) has been determined to explore its suitability as a bidentate ligand for various metal ions. In the structure the quinazoline ring adopts a chair conformation: atoms C7, C8, C13, N2 and N3 are coplanar, with atom C14 departing from the plane by 0.2391 Å . The orientation of the aniline ring is mainly determined by a series of hydrogen-bonds between NH2 and NH groups, and between the phenylamino group and the quinazoline nitrogen (Figure 1 and Table 1). This ring makes dihedral angles of 89.9 (2)° and 85.4 (2)° with the benzimidazole and phenyl rings respectively. The ligand bond distances and angles show that N1—C7 is a localized double bond [1.321 (3) Å], with N2—C7 a single bond at 1.383 (3) Å. The N3—C14 bond length is 1.459 (3) Å, and the N3—C14—N2 bond angle [108.14 (17)°] illustrates the sp3 hybridization of C14. All the other bond lengths and angles in the molecule are normal.
Intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the N–H···N–H···N type along [010] and N–H···O–H···N along [100] are formed (Table 1) resulting in a C22(4) descriptor and a C22(10) descriptor on a binary level of graph set analysis, respectively. C–H···π contacts with H···Cg distances of 2.44 Å are presnt in the structure (Cg is the centre of gravity of ring C1 – C6); however, no π-stacking is observed.
