In the title compound, C21H15N2 +·C7H5O2 -, 2-phenyl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole and benzoic acid form an ion pair complex. The system is consolidated by hydrogen bonds along with π-π inter-actions and N-H⋯π inter-actions between the constituent units. For a better understanding of the crystal structure and inter-molecular inter-actions, a Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed.
