3-Formylpyridine 1-oxide (3FPO) is a compound that belongs to the class of oximes. It can be synthesized from 3-formylpyridine and potassium t-butoxide using desilylation, kinetic, and time constants techniques. The product has been shown to have optical activity and spectral properties in the region of 220 nm. The reaction yields are dependent on the amount of fluoride present as well as the presence of nitrite. 3FPO has been used in the synthesis of various alcohols with yields between 50% and 60%.
