Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis, calculations of crystal voids, inter-action energy and energy frameworks as well as density functional theory (DFT) calculations of 3-[2-(morpholin-4-yl)eth-yl]-5,5-di-phenyl-imidazolidine-2,4-dione.

In the title mol-ecule, CHNO, the imidazolidine ring slightly deviates from planarity and the morpholine ring exhibits the chair conformation. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form helical chains of mol-ecules extending parallel to the axis that are connected by C-H⋯π(ring) inter-actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (55.2%), H⋯C/C⋯H (22.6%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (20.5%) inter-actions. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 236.78 Å and 12.71%, respectively. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicates that the stabilization is dominated by the nearly equal electrostatic and dispersion energy contributions. The DFT-optimized mol-ecular structure at the B3LYP/6-311 G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined mol-ecular structure in the solid state. Moreover, the HOMO-LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.
