In the title compound, C22H17N3, the 1H-indole unit is essentially planar, with a dihedral angle of 0.95 (10)° between the pyrrole ring and the fused benzene ring. The dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 65.09 (10)°. In the crystal, an intermolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond forms an infinite chain in the b-axis direction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
