The title compound, C(23)H(16)N(2)OS, is not planar, the phenyl ring of the benzoyl group making a dihedral of 77.61 (7)° with the benzothio-phene system ring. The benzothio-phene system and the remaining phenyl ring make an angle of 12.71 (13)°. The conformation around the imine functions is E for the C=N bond towards the benzothio-phene system and Z for the C=N bond towards the benzoyl group. The packing of the mol-ecules shows C-H⋯π inter-actions. A weak intramolecular C-H⋯N bond also occurs.
