Keratin Protein-Catalyzed Nitroaldol (Henry) Reaction and Comparison with Other Biopolymers
Here we describe a preliminary investigation on the ability of natural keratin to catalyze the nitroaldol (Henry) reaction between aldehydes and nitroalkanes. Both aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes bearing strong or moderate electron-withdrawing groups were converted into the corresponding β-nit...
