3-Benzoylpyridine (3BP) is a major metabolite of HGG-12, and oxime that has been synthesized as a potential antidote to the toxic effects of soman and other anticholinesterases. Structural similarities exist between 3BP, the cytochrome P450 (CYP)-inducer metyrapone (MET) and other

3-Benzoylpyridine (3-BP), a decomposition product of the soman antidote, HGG-12 (3-benzoylpyridino(1)-methyl 2'-hydroxyiminomethylpyridino(1')methyl ether dichloride) was rapidly metabolized in the isolated perfused rat liver, giving 3-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)pyridine and its corresponding glucuronide, 3-benzoylpyridine-N-oxide, and 3-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)pyridine-N-oxide. The latter is formed both from 3-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)pyridine and
