In the molecule of the title compound, C 10 H 10 N 2 O 2 S, the benzimidazole ring system and the plane through the non-H atoms of the methyl mercaptoacetate group form a dihedral angle of 81.75 (1) . The crystal structure is stabilized by N-HÁ Á ÁN hydrogen bonds, giving infinite chains along the [

✦ Synopsis
Molecules of the title compound, C~10~H~12~N~2~OS, are interconnected by N—H...O hydrogen bonds of moderate strength into infinite chains. There are also intramolecular O—H...N bonds of moderate length. Weaker interactions are represented by C—H...N bonds as well as by π–π interactions between the imidazole and benzene rings [distance between centroids = 3.6865 (8) Å].
