In the title molecule, [Fe(C5H5)(C21H19N2)], the five-membered imidazole ring forms dihedral angles of 88.61 (8) and 42.15 (6)° with the substituted cyclopentadienyl and dimethyl-substituted benzene rings, respectively. In the crystal structure, there is an Nsp2...H contact and a modest C-H...[pi](arene) interaction involving the benzene ring of the benzimidizole system.
