R7C1 is the only square in column 1 that can be <8>

R4C6 is the only square in block 5 that can be <4>

Squares R2C2 and R4C2 in column 2 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <23>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R7C2 - removing <3> from <135> leaving <15>

R9C2 - removing <3> from <1345> leaving <145>

Intersection of row 8 with block 8. The values <48> only appears in one or more of squares R8C4, R8C5 and R8C6 of row 8. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 8. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 8 cannot contain these values.

R9C4 - removing <4> from <2345> leaving <235>

R8C4 is the only square in column 4 that can be <4>

Intersection of column 4 with block 8. The value <3> only appears in one or more of squares R7C4, R8C4 and R9C4 of column 4. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 8. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 8 cannot contain this value.

R7C5 - removing <3> from <1235> leaving <125>

R8C5 - removing <3> from <138> leaving <18>
