Polarity of 2-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl)-1-phenyl- and -1,2-diphenyl-1-nitroethenes was determined and their structure was studied using electronic and 1H, 13C NMR spectroscopy, dipole moments measuring, XRD analysis, and quantum-chemical calculations. It was shown that the 2-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl)-1-nitro-1-phenylethene has Z-configuration both in crystal and solution. The nitro group and benzimidazole substituent in its molecule are removed from the plane of the double bond. For 1,2-diphenyl-1-nitroethene E-structure is typical. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
