After basics:
Code:
+--------------+---------------+-------------+
| 8   39  2    | 7    5    139 | 4   6   13  |
| 4   39  1    | 289  289  6   | 59  7   358 |
| 6   5   7    | 1489 489  139 | 19  2   138 |
+--------------+---------------+-------------+
| 3   67  9    | 25   267  4   | 8   1   257 |
| 5   1   4    | 29   2679 8   | 26  3   27  |
| 2   67  8    | 3    1    57  | 56  4   9   |
+--------------+---------------+-------------+
| 9   4   35   | 6    37   57  | 12  8   12  |
| 7   2   6    | 189  89   19  | 3   5   4   |
| 1   8   35   | 45   34   2   | 7   9   6   |
+--------------+---------------+-------------+

Then I used the following chain: 2*r4c4-(2=9)r5c4-(29=8*)r2c4-(89=1)r8c4-(1=9)r8c6-r1c6=r1c2-(9=3)r2c2-(38*=5)r2c9-(2*5=7)r4c9-(7=6)r4c2-(67=2)r4c5 contradiction => r4c4 <> 2; stte.

I had to break this down bit by bit focusing on box 2

First, an almost XY wing of 259 pivot r5c7 gives pincers on 9 in r2c7 and r5c4 to remove the 9 in r2c4

Second, (is it a XYZ?) wing of 289 using the <89> in box 8 removes the 8 from r3c5

Third, now that r3c5= <49> using an XY chain if r3c5=9 then 1-2-6-5-7-5-4 gives r9c4 = 4 and no <4> in box 2

So, r3c5 = 4
