Azin­yl sulfides. LXXXI. 14‐Phen­yl‐7‐thia­pyrano[2,3‐c;6,5‐c′]diquinoline‐14‐carbonitrile

The mol­ecules of the title compound, C₂₆H₁₅N₃S, have a penta­cyclic ring system which is almost planar, with the central ring in a flattened boat conformation. The folding angle between the two quinoline rings is 6.75 (7)°. The 14‐phen­yl substituent is in a quasi‐axial conformation, while the 14‐cyano substituent is in a quasi‐equatorial conformation with respect to the thio­pyran ring. The S⋯C—C_phen­yl and S⋯C—C_CN angles are 116.8 (2) and 129.3 (2)°, respectively. The plane of the phen­yl group is nearly coplanar with the plane bis­ecting the dihedral angle of the penta­cyclic ring system.
