because of the strong links on 8 in the UR 18, r23c49, the 1 in r3c9 is already eliminated.
but ignoring that
the UR provides a xy-wing{46}r23c9, {16}r1c8, {14}r4c8

eliminates the 4 in r5c9

While looking to see what could be done with the 18 UR, I noticed that the DP killer was either a 4 or 6 in r23c9. This pseudo cell served as the pivot of a 461 XY-Wing, which was all that was needed.

Nice find Marty! I used two steps:
Code:

 | 7     159   3     | 2     18    6     | 458   1459  148   |
 |-------------------+-------------------+-------------------|
 | 14    8     5     | 3     6     9     | 2     14    7     |

 | 245   456   268   | 7     9     1     | 458   456   3     |
 *-----------------------------------------------------------*
(9)r7c9=(9-6)r8c9=r2c9-(6=1)r1c8-r4c8=r4c1-(1=9)r8c1; r7c13,r8c9<>9
ur 18 r23c59; r3c9=4
