In the title mol-ecule, C(30)H(23)N(5)O(3)S, the 1,2,4-triazole ring is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.006 Å), and forms dihedral angles of 66.0 (2), 65.1 (2), 30.1 (2) and 28.1 (2)° with the four phenyl rings. The phenyl ring of the benzyl group directly attached to the triazole ring is almost perpendicular to the nitro-phenyl ring, making a dihedral angle of 84.9 (2)°.
