Abstract
Phenols are well-known precursors of cyclohexadienones, which have widespread applications in organic synthesis. In contrast, their hydroxypyridine counterparts have not been explored yet. An unprecedented oxidative dearomatization of a 3-hydroxypyridine involving an unexpected deformylation step is reported. The chemical reactivity of the resulting unreported azacyclohexadiene-type compound was also explored.

When the reaction was complete (TLC), the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude product was purified by flash-column chromatography [silica gel, cyclohexane–EtOAc (7:3)] to give a yellow oil; yield: 73 mg (60%).
