There are three independent moleculesi n the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C18H16BrN3O3, in which the dihedral angles between the indole and benzene rings are 76.9 (2), 4.9 (2), and 70.9 (2)°. All three molecules exist in a trans configuration with respect to the methylidene units. In each molecule, there is one intramolecular O-H...N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, N-H...O hydrogen bonds occur.
