Henry Reaction

The Henry reaction is sometimes called a nitroaldol reaction, because it involves the addition of a nitronate salt to a carbonyl compound. This is a great setup for a Nef reaction, which was learned in the previous tutorial. Let's look at the mechanism and some important applications, including those involving stereoselectivity.

    I have NO idea what the "Henry reaction" is. And that's GREAT! Because I'm about to learn about something I didn't know about! 🙂

    Fingolimod, better known by its brand name Gilneya. Used for patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS). One of several oral medications approved as a disease modifying treatment (DMT) for MS. I have RRMS, and altho have never taken Gilneya, I have been on several DMT's in my now 24 years of living with MS. I must say, I the oral forms of DMT's are SO MUCH better than injecting ones self everyday, every other day or once a week like we had to before these treatments came around.

    I believe we do know that fundamentally the wave-particle duality is not binary, as an exciton can be 'bound' to a photon, and based on how this is done you can tune the resultant quasi-particle to act in a way that is partially wave-like and partially particle-like in different ratios. This has been used to test the properties of different 2D materials especially ones with properties similar to topological insulators.
