In the molecule of the title compound, C37H33ClN4O6, the four-membered [beta]-lactam ring is essentially planar and is oriented at dihedral angles of 30.0 (1), 76.3 (1) and 30.9 (1)° with respect to the methoxyphenyl ring, the phenyl ring and the indole unit, respectively. The pyrrolidine ring adopts a twist conformation. Intramolecular C-H...Cl and C-H...O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of two five- and one six-membered rings. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules. A weak [pi]...[pi] interaction between the pyrrole rings further stabilizes the structure, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.806 (2) Å.
