N-[2,6-Bis(1-methylethyl)phenyl]pyridine-4-carboxamide

Abstract

In the title compound, C18H22N2O, the dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the pyridine ring is 80.0 (1)°. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules into chains along the b axis. The packing also features C—H...O and C—H...N hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions, one directed to the benzene ring and the other to the center of the pyridine ring.
