title: 2-[2-(Methyl-sulfan-yl)benzimidazol-1-yl]ethanol.
abstract: In the title compound, C(10)H(12)N(2)OS, the asymmetric unit consists of two independent mol-ecules. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules form R(4) (4)(28) centrosymmetric tetra-mers via O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. These tetra-mers are stacked along the c axis via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯π and π-π inter-actions are also present; in the latter, the centroid-centroid distances are 4.075 (1) and 3.719 (1) Å.
