In the title molecule, C16H14OS, the dihedral angle between the phenyl and benzene rings is 3.81 (15)°. The H atoms of the central enone group are trans. The propenone unit makes dihedral angles of 11.73 (18) and 11.62 (17)° with the benzene and phenyl rings, respectively. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C—H...O and C—H...π interactions.
