The title molecule, C17H25N3O3, is built up from fused six- and five-membered rings linked to a –C10H21 chain. The fused-ring system is essentially planar, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.009 (2) Å. The chain is roughly perpendicular to this plane, making a dihedral angle of 79.5 (2)°. In the crystal, N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds build infinite chains along [010]. There are channels in the structure containing disordered hexane. The contribution of this solvent to the scattering power was suppressed using the SQUEEZE option in PLATON [Spek (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148–155].

To 5-nitro-1,3-dihydro-benzimidazol-2-one (0.2 g, 1.1 mmol), potassium carbonate (0.30 g, 2.2 mmol) and tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (0.07 g, 0.2 mmol) in DMF (15 ml) was added 1-bromodecane (0.34 ml, 1.65 mmol). Stirring was continued at room temperature for 6 h. The precipitated salt was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was separated by
on a column of silica gel with ethyl acetate/hexane (1/2) as Colorless crystals were isolated when the solvent was allowed to evaporate (yield: 27%).There are channels in the structure containing disordered hexane. The contribution of this solvent to the scattering power was suppressed using the SQUEEZE option in PLATON (Spek, 2009) and the reflections were merged.
H atoms were located in a difference map and treated as riding with C—H = 0.93 Å for all H atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(aromatic, methine)and Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(methyl).

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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. |

Benzimidazoles are very useful intermediates/subunits for the development of molecules of pharmaceutical or biological interest. Benzimidazole derivatives have found applications in diverse therapeutic areas including anti-ulcers, anti-hypertensives, anti-virals, anti-fungals and anti-cancers (Gravatt et al. 1994; Horton et al. 2003; Kim et al. 1996; Roth et al. 1997).
As a continuation of our research work devoted to the development of substituted benzimidazol-2-one derivatives (Ouzidan et al., 2011a, 2011b), we report in this paper the synthesis of a new benzimidazol-2-one derivative by action of 1-bromodecane with 5-nitro-1,3-dihydro-benzimidazol-2-one in the presence of a catalytic quantity of tetra-n-butylammonium bromide under mild conditions to furnish the title compound (Scheme 1).
The molecular structure of 1-decyl-6-nitro-1,3-dihydro-benzimidazol-2-one is built up from two fused six-and five-membered rings linked to a C10H21 chain as schown in Fg.1. The fused rings are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.008 (2) Å and -0.004 (2) Å for C2 and N1, respectively. The dihedral angle between them does not exceed 0.68 (7)°. The torsional angles C7–N2–C11–C12 and C17–C18–C19–C20 are -98.4 (2) ° and 176.7 (2)°, respectively. N1—H···O1 hydrogen bonds build up infinite one-dimensional chains along the [0 1 0] direction as shown in Fig.2 and Table 1.
