Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C14H9ClN2O, contains two molecules with dihedral angles of 33.52 (11) and 34.58 (11)° between their benzene rings and imidazole ring systems. In the crystal, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O interactions are observed. The crystal examined was found to be a racemic twin.
