The title compounds are the 3-ethyl, (I), and 3-isopropyl, (II), derivatives of (1-methyl-2,6-diphenylpiperidin-4-ylidene)amino phenyl carbonate. The main difference in the conformation of the two compounds is the angle of inclination of the phenoxycarbonyl ring with respect to the piperidine ring mean plane, with a dihedral angle of 2.05 (8)° in (I) and 45.24 (13)° in (II).

In the title compound, C27H29N3O2, the piperidine ring exists in a chair conformation with an equatorial orientation of the phenyl and methyl substituents. The C—C=N bond angles are significantly different [119.1 (2) and 127.2 (2)°]. The phenyl rings are inclined to one another by 44.90 (14)°, and by 80.85 (13) and 79.62 (12)° to the mean plane of the piperidine ring. The terminal pyridine ring is inclined to the piperidine ring mean plane by 74.79 (15)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—Hπ interactions, forming a three-dimensional network.

The title piperidine derivative, C26H26N2O3, has an E conformation about the N=C bond. The piperidine ring has a chair conformation and its mean plane is almost perpendicular to the attached phenyl rings, making dihedral angles of 87.47 (9) and 87.34 (8)°. The planes of these two phenyl rings are inclined to one another by 60.38 (9)°. The plane of the terminal phenyl ring is tilted at an angle of 32.79 (9)° to the mean plane of the piperidine ring. The molecular conformation is stabilized by two intramolecular C—HO contacts. There are no significant intermolecular interactions in the crystal.

In the title compound, C26H26N2O2, the piperidine ring exhibits a chair conformation. The phenyl rings are attached to the central heterocycle in an equatorial position. The dihedral angle between the planes of the phenyl rings is 57.58 (8)°. In the crystal, C—HO interactions connect the molecules into zigzag chains along [001].
