The title compound, C21H18O3S, is the E isomer, the ester oxy link being trans to one of the phenyl groups. The planes of the phenyl substituents at the vinyl C atoms form a dihedral angle of 66.32 (7)° with each other. The vinyl group shows noticeable non-planarity, the C(Ph)-C=C-C(Ph) torsion angle being 8.4 (3)°.
