  Abstract The first search for nonresonant B-c(+) -> pi(+)mu(+)mu(-) decays is reported. The analysis uses proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb(-1). No evidence for an excess of signal events over background is observed and an upper limit is set on the branching fraction ratio B(B-c(+) -> pi(+)mu(+)mu(-))/B(B-c(+) -> J/psi pi(+)) < 2.1x10(-4) at 90% confidence level. Additionally, an updated measurement of the ratio of the B-c(+) -> psi(2S)pi(+) and B-c(+) -> J/psi pi(+) branching fractions is reported. The ratio B(B-c(+) -> psi(2S)pi+)/B(B-c(+) -> J/psi pi(+)) is measured to be 0.254 +/- 0.018 +/- 0.003 +/- 0.005, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third is due to the uncertainties on the branching fractions of the leptonic J/psi and psi(2S) decays. This measurement is the most precise to date and is consistent with previous LHCb results.
