title: 2-(2-Methyl-6-phenyl-1-propyl-1,4-dihydro-pyridin-4-yl-idene)propane-dinitrile.
abstract: In the title compound, C(18)H(17)N(3), the dihedral angle between the dihydropyridine and phenyl rings is 72.57 (5)° and that between the dihydropyridine ring and malononitrile plane is 5.19 (20)°. The C-C bond lengths in the pyridine ring are considerably shorter than those of normal single bonds, indicating that electrons on the dihydropyridine ring, including the non-bonding electrons of the N atom, are delocalized on the ring.
