In the molecule, the pyridyl ring is coplanar with the imino functional groups [torsion angles in the range 177.1 (2)¨C179.9 (2)¡ã. The two 2,6-diethyl-substituted benzene rings are approximately perpendicular to the ethylidenepyridine central core, the dihedral angles being 88.7 (1) and 88.4 (1)¡ã, respectively. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536808036842
