4-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzyl bromide (2.28 g, 10.0 mmol) was slowly added to a solution of benzimidazole (0.59 g, 5.0 mmol) in acetone (25 ml) and the resulting mixture was stirred under reflux for over a period of of 24 h. The volume of solvent was concentrated by ca 10 ml and then cooled to rt. The resulting precipitate was collected, washed with acetone, and dried to afford a white powder. The crude product was recrystallized from methanol/water. Yield 1.81 g, 73.2%. Elemental analysis, calcd (%) for C25H25N2BrO5: C 58.49, H 4.91; found(%): C 58.52, H 4.85. The FAB
showed ions at 496.The C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically and were included in the
in the riding-model approximation, with distances 0.98 (CH3), 0.99 (CH2) and 0.95 Å (aromatic). The two water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and then refined as riding on the water O atom (0.84 and 0.85 Å). Uiso(H) = xUeq(attached atom), where x = 1.5 for O and methyl C, 1.2 for all other C.As a new class of compounds in organometallic chemistry, N-heterocyclic
have attracted much interest; they have often been applied as catalysts for Suzuki-Miyura, Sonogashira, Stille and Heck reactions (Herrmann, 2002; Herrmann et al., 1995; Navarro et al., 2006).In this work, we report the structure of a new N-heterocyclic carbene derivative, 1,3-bis(4-(methoxycarbonyl)benzyl)benzimidazolium bromide monohydrate. The molecular structure of the title compound is depicted in Fig. 1. All bond lengths are in normal ranges (Allen et al.,1987).
The dihedral angles between the benzimidazole ring system and the two (C9–C14) and (C18–C23) benzene rings are 87.77 (11)° and 63.05 (11)°, respectively; the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 66.25 (13)°.
The bromide anions and water molecules form infinite meso-helical chains parallel to the b axis via O—H···Br hydrogen bonds, and the cations are linked to water molecules by C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2, Table 1). In the π–π stacking interactions occurs between parallel benzimidazole rings, with a face-to-face separation of 3.456 Å (Fig. 2).
The crystal structures of three very similar benzimidazolium halide monohydrates have been published in recent years (Akkurt et al., 2005; Pınar et al., 2006; Arslan et al., 2009;),

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

As a new class of compounds in organometallic chemistry, N-heterocyclic carbenes have attracted much interest; they have often been applied as catalysts for Suzuki-Miyura, Sonogashira, Stille and Heck reactions (Herrmann, 2002; Herrmann et al., 1995; Navarro et al., 2006).
In this work, we report the structure of a new N-heterocyclic carbene derivative, 1,3-bis(4-(methoxycarbonyl)benzyl)benzimidazolium bromide monohydrate. The molecular structure of the title compound is depicted in Fig. 1. All bond lengths are in normal ranges (Allen et al.,1987).
The dihedral angles between the benzimidazole ring system and the two (C9–C14) and (C18–C23) benzene rings are 87.77 (11)° and 63.05 (11)°, respectively; the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 66.25 (13)°.
The bromide anions and water molecules form infinite meso-helical chains parallel to the b axis via O—H···Br hydrogen bonds, and the cations are linked to water molecules by C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2, Table 1). In the crystal structure, π–π stacking interactions occurs between parallel benzimidazole rings, with a face-to-face separation of 3.456 Å (Fig. 2).
The crystal structures of three very similar benzimidazolium halide monohydrates have been published in recent years (Akkurt et al., 2005; Pınar et al., 2006; Arslan et al., 2009;),
