In the title compound, C20H21N3, the pyrimidine ring is inclined at dihedral angles of 51.57 (4) and 2.49 (4)° to the two phenyl rings. The dihedral angle between the two terminal phenyl rings is 50.44 (4)°. In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked via a pair of N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming an inversion dimer with an R22(8) ring motif. Furthermore, the crystal structure is stabilized by a weak π–π interaction, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6065 (5) Å.
