I noticed that the position of <3> in box 2 means that r3c7 and r6c4 can't both be <3> as this would cause a contradiction.

But, if r1c8 = 5 then r3c7=3 and also r6c8=9, r6c4=3, so r1c8 <>5

If we look at our chain of 5's running from a to e we can see the following:

1)If we make r1c6 =5 then follow the chain a to e we get r1c8 also = 5 = contradiction so r1c6 < > 5.

Go in reverse from e to a

2)If we make r1c8 = 5 then follow the chain e to a and we get r1c6 also = 5 = contradiction so r1c8 < > 5.

The only legit 5 left on row 1 must be r1c7.
