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⋯π interactions, one directed to the benzene ring and the other to the center of the pyridine ring.

N-[2,6-bis(1-methylethyl)phenyl]-4-pyridinecarboxamide was prepared by combining and modifying reported methods (Wallace et al. (1990); Boeré et al. (1998); Krajete et al. (2004)). Isonicotinic acid (8.00 g, 65.0 mmol) is refluxed in thionyl chloride (30.0 ml), under nitrogen atmosphere, for 3 h. The excess thionyl chloride is distilled off, to afford the corresponding isonicotinoyl chloride (HCl salt) as pale-yellow solid (not isolated). Dry dichloromethane (20.0 ml), dry pyridine (70.0 ml), and 2,6-diisopropylaniline (12.9 ml, 68.2 mmol) are added at 0°C (ice bath). The reaction mixture is left to heat to room temperature, and is subsequently refluxed for 2 h. The green-yellow suspension obtained is reduced to around 70 ml by evaporation under vacuum, and water (150 ml) is added. The green-yellow precipitate formed is recuperated as solid by filtration. Recrystallization from hot methanol at 4°C affords the desired N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)isonicotinamide as X-ray quality off-white needles, air dried (14.9 g, 52.7 mmol).

The amide H atom was located in a difference Fourier map and refined freely. The other H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H 0.95 Å) and included in the
in the riding model approximation; their temperature displacement parameters were set to 1.2 times the equivalent isotropic temperature factors of the parent site.In the present work, N-[2,6-bis(1-methylethyl)phenyl]-4-pyridinecarboxamide has been synthesized as a potential ligand in coordination chemistry. The metal complexes of similar precursors are already known to catalyse hydroamination of aminoalkenes (Schafer et al. (2011)).
The molecular structure of the title compound is illustrated in Fig. 1. The bond distances are normal (Allen (2002)). The pyridyl ring is slightly tilted with respect to the central amide group at the angle of 5.7 (1)°, while the substituted phenyl ring is tilted by 79.8 (1)°.
Fig. 2 illustrates conventional intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonding, forming chains along b axis.

Experimental. X-ray crystallographic data for I were collected from a single-crystal sample, which was mounted on a loop fiber. Data were collected using a Bruker Platform diffractometer, equipped with a Bruker SMART 4 K Charged-Coupled Device (CCD) Area Detector using the program APEX2 and a Nonius FR591 rotating anode equiped with a Montel 200 optics The crystal-to-detector distance was 5.0 cm, and the data collection was carried out in 512 x 512 pixel mode. The initial unit-cell parameters were determined by a least-squares fit of the angular setting of strong reflections, collected by a 10.0 degree scan in 33 frames over four different parts of the reciprocal space (132 frames total). One complete sphere of data was collected, to better than 0.80 Å resolution. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

In the present work, N-[2,6-bis(1-methylethyl)phenyl]-4-pyridinecarboxamide has been synthesized as a potential ligand in coordination chemistry. The metal complexes of similar precursors are already known to catalyse hydroamination of aminoalkenes (Schafer et al. (2011)).
The molecular structure of the title compound is illustrated in Fig. 1. The bond distances are normal (Allen (2002)). The pyridyl ring is slightly tilted with respect to the central amide group at the angle of 5.7 (1)°, while the substituted phenyl ring is tilted by 79.8 (1)°.
Fig. 2 illustrates conventional intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonding, forming chains along b axis.
