“…Among them, the aza-Henry reaction [1,2,3,4], also called nitro-Mannich reaction, involves the nucleophilic addition of nitro alkanes to aldimines and leads to the synthesis of β-nitro amines, valuable compounds containing two vicinal nitrogenated functionalities with different oxidation states. Also for this, the aza-Henry reaction presents important synthetic applications [5,6,7,8], providing access to a wide variety of other organic compounds by functional transformations of the nitro group into other chemical functionalities, such as amines, carbonyl groups, hydroxylamines, oximes, and nitriles.…”
