title: (3E,5E)-1-Benzyl-3,5-dibenzyl-idenepiperidin-4-one.
abstract: In the title compound, C(26)H(23)NO, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate a ribbon structure along the a axis. These ribbons further assemble into a one-dimensional sheet parallel to the ac plane via C-H⋯π inter-actions. The piperidin-4-one ring adopts a sofa conformation with the 1-benzyl group in the equatorial position, and the 3- and 5-phenyl substituents stretched out on either side. The benzyl-idene units adopt E configurations and the 1-benzyl group is disposed towards the 3- substituent of the piperidin-4-one ring.
