XY-Chain ABCD: r6c3=6; r4c13<>6, r6c6<>6
(6=1)r6c3-(1=8)r7c3-(8=4)r7c6-(4=6)r4c6; r4c13<>6, r6c6<>6 solves it. |

My initial solution was the same as that already posted by Clement so I looked for an alternative.
I did spot an almost hidden pair AHP(45)r46c1=(4)r5c1 which set r5c1=4 but, to my surprise and disappointment, it did not advance the puzzle.
So, I settled for a variation of my original solution:
5r6c7=(5-1)r6c1=r6c3-(1=8=4)r7c36-r46c6=r6c4-(4=5)r6c7 => 5r6c7

Note the DP 49 in R169C456.
One way to prevent the DP is that AB is 68, forming an XY-wing with CD. R7C3 <>1. (Which solves the puzzle.)
Now, how to make an argument about R1C4 <6>?

| I also used the DP 49 in boxes 258. Either r1c4 or r6c6=6 or r9c6=8. Common outcome; r4c6=6. |

r6c6 = 6 implies r4c6 =6? How can that be? They are in the same column.

You beat me to it. I was going to delete the post, but you're too fast and (justifiably) untrusting.   |

If r6c6=6 is false, then it's conceivable that it could lead to r4c6=6.
Guess what, r6c6=6 is false. Unfortunately, Marty doesn't list his derived chains. |

(6)r6c6-(6=1)r6c3-(1=8)r7c3-(8=4)r7c6-(4=6)r4c6
So Marty, if you can remember the other two paths, I'd say you're exonerated  |

However, proving r6c6<>6 doesn't make r4c6=6 an "outcome". |

Yah, sure. One would have to prove the same "outcome" from (6)r1c4 and (8)r9c6.
