title: 5-Chloro-3-[(E)-1,2-diphenyl-ethen-yl]-1H-indole.
abstract: In the title compound, C(22)H(16)ClN, the pyrrole system makes a dihedral angle of 68.9 (1)° with the plane of phenyl ring at the ethenyl 1-position. An intra-molecular C-H⋯π inter-action is observed. In the crystal, inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions link the mol-ecules into infinite chains running along the b axis.
