title: 1-(4-tert-Butyl-benz-yl)-2-(4-tert-butyl-phen-yl)-1H-benzimidazole.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(28)H(32)N(2), the benzimidazole ring system is almost planar [maximum deviation = 0.0221 (15) Å] and forms dihedral angles of 85.86 (4) and 32.09 (6)° with the benzene rings. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into chains running parallel to the a axis by inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The methyl groups of a tert-butyl group are rotationally disordered over two positions with refined site-occupancy factors of 0.636 (4) and 0.364 (4).
