title: Crystal structure of (2-bromo-methyl-1-phenyl-sulfonyl-1H-indol-3-yl)(phen-yl)methanone.
abstract: In the title compound, C22H16BrNO3S, the phenyl rings make dihedral angles of 84.81 (16) and 61.67 (17)° with the indole ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.012 Å), while the phenyl rings are inclined to one another by 69.5 (2)°. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by weak intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The sulfonyl S atom has a distorted tetra-hedral configuration. In the crystal, there are no significant inter-molecular inter-actions present.
