Abstract

The pyridine rings of the title compound, C(18)H(23)N(3), are in a nearly perpendicular orientation relative to the plane defined by the three amino-bonded C atoms, making dihedral angles of 87.4 (1) ° and 84.2 (1) °. One of the pyridine N atoms acts as an hydrogen-bond acceptor for two pyridine C-H groups. By means of these intermolecular hydrogen bonds, the mol-ecules form a two-dimensional network parallel to the ab plane.
