R3C2 is the only square in row 3 that can be <1>

R4C1 is the only square in row 4 that can be <7>

R8C4 is the only square in row 8 that can be <9>

R3C5 is the only square in row 3 that can be <9>

R9C4 is the only square in row 9 that can be <7>

R3C6 is the only square in row 3 that can be <7>

R1C2 is the only square in row 1 that can be <7>

R2C7 is the only square in row 2 that can be <7>

R2C2 is the only square in row 2 that can be <9>

R1C8 is the only square in row 1 that can be <9>

R5C1 is the only square in row 5 that can be <9>

R6C7 is the only square in row 6 that can be <9>

R6C1 is the only square in column 1 that can be <5>

R4C3 is the only square in block 4 that can be <1>

Squares R3C4 and R7C4 in column 4 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <36>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R2C4 - removing <36> from <2346> leaving <24>

R4C4 - removing <3> from <234> leaving <24>

Intersection of row 4 with block 6. The values <58> only appears in one or more of squares R4C7, R4C8 and R4C9 of row 4. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 6. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 6 cannot contain these values.

R6C9 - removing <8> from <2348> leaving <234>

Intersection of column 8 with block 6. The value <3> only appears in one or more of squares R4C8, R5C8 and R6C8 of column 8. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 6. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 6 cannot contain this value.

R4C9 - removing <3> from <23458> leaving <2458>

R5C9 - removing <3> from <134> leaving <14>

R6C9 - removing <3> from <234> leaving <24>

Intersection of column 8 with block 9. The value <6> only appears in one or more of squares R7C8, R8C8 and R9C8 of column 8. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 9. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 9 cannot contain this value.

R9C9 - removing <6> from <14568> leaving <1458>

Intersection of block 3 with column 9. The values <236> only appears in one or more of squares R1C9, R2C9 and R3C9 of block 3. These squares are the ones that intersect with column 9. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of column 9 cannot contain these values.

R4C9 - removing <2> from <2458> leaving <458>

R6C9 - removing <2> from <24> leaving <4>
