title: 4,5-Diphenyl-2-p-tolyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium perchlorate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(22)H(19)N(2) (+)·ClO(4) (-), the three pendant aromatic rings are twisted from the plane of the imidazolium ring by dihedral angles of 17.3 (2), 65.7 (2) and 3.4 (2)°. In the crystal structure, N-H⋯O and N-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds link the ions, forming a ribbon-like structure along the a axis.
