Crystal structure, Hirshfeld and electronic transition analysis of 2-[(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzoic acid

In the title compound, C15H12N2O2, the benzimidazole ring system is inclined to the benzene ring by 78.04 (10)°. The crystal structure features O—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonding and C—H...π and π–π interactions, which were investigated using Hirshfeld surface analysis.
