The N atom and the C and H atoms in position 4 of the pyridine ring lie on the twofold axis. The cyclohexene ring has a sofa conformation with the CH2 C atom adjacent to the dimethyl-substituted C atom displaced by 0.5949 (16) from the mean plane of the other five C atoms. In the crystal, weak C¡ªH...O interactions link the molecules into chains parallel to the a axis. In addition, ¦Ð¨C¦Ð stacking interactions [centroid¨Ccentroid distance = 3.8444 (7) ] contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536812048957
