title: 4,6-Dimethyl-2-(3-pyridyl)quinolin-5-amine.
abstract: The title compound, C(16)H(15)N(3), shows a hindrance effect between adjacent amino and methyl groups that leads to a structural distortion, which is reflected in the non-planarity of the quinoline entity and in the bond angles and distances. The crystal packing consists of chains along the b axis sustained by an intermolecular hydrogen bond between the amino group and the N atom of the pyridyl ring.
