Henry reaction is a base catalyzed reaction which can produce β-nitroalcohol or nitroethylene derivatives from the condensation of aryl aldehydes and nitromethane under different conditions. In the present article, we introduce hexamethylenetetramine as a basic organocatalyst for Henry reaction, which can produce β-nitroalcohol derivatives from the condensation of aryl aldehydes and nitromethane under different conditions. By application of this organic base, β-nitroalcohol ompounds were produced as the only product in good to excellent yields. Also reusability of hexamethylenetetramine in this reaction makes our method green.
