Experimental

R factor = 0.036; wR factor = 0.097; data-to-parameter ratio = 15.8. 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 interactions, one directed to the benzene ring and the other to the center of the pyridine ring.
