Enzyme-catalyzed Henry (nitroaldol) reaction

Transglutaminase was first used to catalyze Henry reactions of aliphatic, aromatic and hetero-aromatic aldehydes with nitroalkanes. The reactions were carried out at room temperature, and the corresponding nitro alcohols were obtained in yields up to 96%.
