Compound 2(C20H16N2O2) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Fdd2 with a = 26.344(15), b = 48.50(3), c = 5.293(3), V = 6764(7) ?3, Z = 16, Mr = 316.35, Dc = 1.243 g/cm3, F(000) = 2656, GOOF = 1.043, = 0.081 mm-1, the final R = 0.0526 and wR = 0.1267 for 2059 observed reflections with I 2σ(I). 1 and 2 molecules are connected through hydrogen bonds to generate a 2D network and a 1D chain structure, respectively. The preliminary antibacterial activity results showed that the title compounds display excellent antibacterial activities to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Biological Activity of a New 4,5-Diaryl-lH-imidazole Derivative

A new 4,5-diaryl-lH-imidazole was synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, ESI-MS, elemental analysis and FT-IR. The crystal structure of the title compound （C19H16C12N202, Mr = 375.24） has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal parameters： mono- clinic system, space group P2/n, a = 14.349（3）, b = 8.7918（18）, c = 15.352（3） A, β = 108.56（3）°, V = 1836.1（6） A3, Z = 4, F（000） = 776, Dc = 1.357 g/cm3, p = 0.368 mm-1, the final R = 0.0502 and wR = 0.1066 for 2324 observed reflections with 1 〉 2 σ（/）. A total of 16117 reflections were collected, of which 3615 were independent （Rint = 0.0595）. The preliminary bioassay suggested that the title compound exhibits distinct effective inhibition on the proliferation of cancer cell lines.
