In the 15H20N2O3S, the hydroxy group is involved in the formation of O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which link two molecules into a centrosymmetric dimer. Weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds further link these dimers into chains propagating along the a axis. The crystal packing exhibits π–π interactions between the five- and six-membered rings of neighbouring molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.819 (2) Å] and short intermolecular S⋯S contacts of 3.495 (1) Å.

A mixture of 3-amino-4-(2-hydroxylethanolamine)benzoic acid ethyl ester (0.1.0 g, 0.45 mmol), K10-montmorillonite (2.0 g), 3-(methylthio) propionaldehyde (0.098 g, 0.91 mmol) and 1 ml MeCN were irradiated in CEMTM microwave at 80°C, 150 W, 5 bar and hold for 5 minutes. Then, another
of aldehyde was added and the reation mixture was irradiated again at the same condition as before. The reaction was monitored by TLC (Hex:EtOAc,1:4). Upon completion, K10-montmorillonite was removed by filtration, washed with DCM and later evaporated in vacuo to afford brown precipitate. The compound was purified with PLC (Hex:EtOAc, 1:4) before it was recrystallized with hot MeOH to afford colourless crystals.X-ray data were collected at 100 K (Cosier & Glazer, 1986). Hydroxyl atom H3 was located from difference Fourier map, and isotropically refined with restraint O3—H3 = 0.843 (10) Å. The remaining H atoms attached to C atoms were fixed geometrically and refined as riding, with C—H= 0.95–0.99Å and with Uiso(H)=1.2 or 1.5Ueq(C). A rotating group model was applied to the methyl groups.

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open=flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
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. |

Heteroaromatic compounds of benzimidazoles exhibit important values particularly in biological and pharmaceutical fields. The previledge sub-structures of benzimidazoles have been reported as potential inhibitors (Sasmal et al., 2011), probes for β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques in Alzheimer's disease (Cui et al., 2010), showed anti- cancer activities (Demirayak et al., 2011), anti hepatitis B (Li et al., 2006) and C virus (Hwu et al., 2008). Various methods have been employed to synthesize benzimidazole derivatives (Wright, 1951; Preston, 1974). However, two common methods widely used are either by reacting diamine with carboxylic acid or diamine with aldehyde using solid catalyst (Ruiz et al., 2010) or polymer bounds (Chou et al., 2011). In continuation of our work (Hamzah et al., 2010; Arumugam et al. 2011), we report herein the crystal structure of the title compound, (I).
The title molecule (Fig. 1), is similar with those reported earlier - ethyl 1-(2- hydroxyethyl)-2-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylate (Hamzah et al., 2010) and ethyl 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-propyl-1H-benzimidazole -5-carboxylate (Hamzah et al., 2011), in that only the 2-methylthioethyl substituent at the imidazole ring is different. The benzimidazole ring [N1/N2/C1—C7] is essentially planar and the C4 atom deviates by 0.012 (2)Å from that plane. The bond lengths and angles are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and are in agreement with those reported by Hamzah et al. (2010, 2011).
In the crystal structure, the hydroxy group is involved in formation intermolecular hydrogen bond O—H···N (Table 1), which link two molecules into centrosymmetric dimer (Fig. 2). Weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link further these dimers into chains propagated along a axis. The crystal packing exhibits π–π interactions between the benzimidazole fragments with Cg1···Cg2 distance of 3.819 (2)Å (Cg1 and Cg2 are centroids of N1/N2/C1/C6/C7 and C1-C6, respectively) and short intermolecular S···S contacts of 3.495 (1) Å.
