The title compound, C15H12N4O, was synthesized by a standard Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. The terminal pyrimidine rings are rotated at dihedral angles of 12.06 (4) and −13.13 (4)° with respect to the central benzene ring. In the crystal, the molecules are connected by two kinds of C—HN hydrogen bonds, forming zigzag chains along the c axis. Weak π–π interactions between the benzene and one of the pyrimidine rings are also found and stack the molecules along the b axis [centroid–centroid distance = 4.112 (3) Å].

In the pregnene fragment of the title compound, C27H38ClN, the three six-membered rings exhibit chair conformations and the five-membered ring has a distorted envelope form with the fused C atom not bearing a methyl group as the flap atom. The amino group is involved in the formation of an intramolecular N—HCl hydrogen bond. The crystal packing exhibits no short intermolecular contacts.
