Abstract

In the title compound, C(17)H(16)N(2)·H(2)O, the imidazole ring is essentially planar [maximum deviation = 0.0037 (7) Å]. The imidazole ring makes dihedral angles of 80.74 (7) and 41.62 (7)° with the phenyl rings attached to the N and C atoms, respectively. The dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 75.83 (8)°. Inter-molecular O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are found in the crystal structure.
