Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₉H₁₅BrN₂O₄S, the indole ring system is planar and the S atom has a distorted tetrahedral configuration. The dihedral angle between the sulfonyl-bound phenyl ring and the indole ring system is 71.19 (8)°. The orientations of the phenylsulfonyl and methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione substituents with respect to the indole moiety are influenced by intramolecular C-HO and C-HBr interactions. The pyrrolidine ring adopts an extremely flattened envelope conformation. Weak C-HO interactions generate rings of motifs S(5), S(6), R₂¹(5) and R₂²(9).
