In the title compound, C24H20N2O3, the mean plane of the benzimidazole unit makes dihedral angles of 79.88 (11) and 85.44 (12)degrees with the benzene and 4-methoxybenzene rings, respectively. The benzene and 4-methoxybenzene rings maske a dihedral angle of 16.10 (14)degrees. A pair of intermolecular N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds connects adjacent molecules into an inversion dimer, generating an R-2(2)(26) ring motif. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions.
