The 12 non-H atoms defining the triple-fused-ring system in the title compound, C(19)H(13)ClN(6), are almost coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.023 Å). The chloro-substituted ring is almost effectively coplanar with the central atoms [dihedral angle = 6.74 (13)°], but the N-bound benzene ring is not [dihedral angle = 54.38 (13)°]. In the crystal, supra-molecular chains along the a axis sustained by C-H⋯π and π-π [centroid-centroid distance between N(4)C and C(4)N five-membered rings = 3.484 (2) Å] stacking occur. A very long C-Cl⋯π contact is also seen.
