(E)-1-(1-Benzyl-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-phenyl­prop-2-en-1-one

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C19H17N3O, contains two independent mol­ecules. In one mol­ecule, the essentially planar triazole ring [maximum deviation = 0.003 (2) A] forms dihedral angles of 5.57 (12) and 87.51 (12)° with the two phenyl rings, while in the other mol­ecule [maximum deviation in triazole ring = 0.001 (2) A] these angles are 1.55 (10) and 82.73 (11)°. The dihedral angles between the two phenyl rings in the two mol­ecules are 87.77 (13) and 81.22 (11)°. In the crystal, the independent mol­ecules are connected via a weak C—H⋯N hydrogen bond, forming dimers. Further stabilization is provided by weak C—H⋯π inter­actions.
