Henry Stephen
For the Venezuelan musician, see Henry Stephen (musician).
Henry Stephen OBE (10 July 1889 – 6 July 1965) was an English chemist who might be best remembered for inventing the Stephen reaction, a way to make aldehydes (R-CHO) from nitriles (R-CN). He was born in Manchester.
His widow Dora gave the lake and woodland behind The Kilns in Risinghurst to the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust in 1969, and it is known as the Henry Stephen/C.S.Lewis Nature Reserve in his memory.[1][2]
