title: N-[2,6-Bis(1-methyl-eth-yl)phen-yl]pyridine-4-carboxamide.
abstract: In the title compound, C(18)H(22)N(2)O, 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 mol-ecules 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.
