Abstract
In the title compound, C12H10N4·C8H6O4, 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene and terephthalic acid molecules are joined via strong O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds to form infinite zigzag chains. Both molecules are located on crystallographic inversion centers. The O—H⋯N hydrogen-bonded chains are assembled into two-dimensional layers through weak C—H⋯O and strong π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.818 (2) Å], leading to the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
