(E)-3-(2-Nitro­phen­yl)-1-{1-phenyl­sulfonyl-2-[(phenyl­sulfon­yl)meth­yl]-1H-indol-3-yl}prop-2-en-1-one

In the title compound, C(30)H(22)N(2)O(7)S(2), the configuration about the propene C=C bond is E. The indole unit is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.031 (3) Å. The dihedral angle between the planes of the phenyl rings of the two phenyl­sulfonyl groups is 80.95 (19)°. The central prop-2-ene-1-one group is oriented at a dihedral angle of 44.26 (11)° with respect to the nitro­phenyl ring and at 39.24 (8)° with respect to the indole unit. The S atoms are in a distorted tetra­hedral configuration. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers via pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with an R (2) (2)(24) graph-set motif. The crystal structure is stabilized by further C—H⋯O inter­actions. Short intra­molecular C—H⋯O contacts result in several S(6) rings.
