The title compound, C13H13NO4S, is a racemic mixture of enantiomers. Short intramolecular contacts between sulfonyl O and ester carbonyl C atoms are observed [C⋯O = 2.881 (1), 2.882 (1) and 2.686 (1) Å], indicating the possibility of donor—acceptor interactions between these groups. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and cyclopropyl rings is 79.3 (1)°
