Patent Claims:	1. A method of treating a neurodegenerative disease in a patient in need thereof, wherein induction of Nrf2 activity and/or inhibition of nitric oxide production in the patient would be beneficial, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a compound of the formula: wherein: R1 and R2 are independently: hydrogen; or alkyl(c≤12), alkenyl(c≤12), alkynyl(c≤12), aryl(c≤12), aralkyl(c≤12), heteroaryl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl(c≤12), acyl(c≤12), alkylsulphonyl, alkenylsulphonyl(c≤12), alkynylsulphonyl(c≤12), arylsulphonyl(c≤12), aralkyl sulphonyl(c≤12), heteroarylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl-sulphonyl(c≤12), or a substituted version of any of these groups; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, tautomers, or optical isomers thereof. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a double bond. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a single bond. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said neurodegenerative disease is selected from the group consisting of Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), Huntington's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein said neurodegenerative disease is Alzheimer's disease. 6. The method of claim 4, wherein said neurodegenerative disease is MS. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is administered systemically. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the compound is administered intravenously, intra-arterially, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously or orally. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the effective amount is 0.1-1000 mg/kg. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the effective amount is administered in a single dose per day. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the effective amount is administered in two or more doses per day. 12. A method of treating or preventing a seizure disorder in a patient in need thereof, wherein induction of Nrf2 activity and/or inhibition of nitric oxide production in the patient would be beneficial, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a compound of the formula: wherein: R1 and R2 are independently: hydrogen; or alkenyl(c≤12), alkynyl(c≤12), aryl(c≤12), aralkyl(c≤12), heteroaryl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl(c≤12), acyl(c≤12), alkylsulphonyl, alkenylsulphonyl(c≤12), alkynylsulphonyl(c≤12), arylsulphonyl(c≤12), aralkylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroarylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl-sulphonyl(c≤12), or a substituted version of any of these groups; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, tautomers, or optical isomers thereof. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a double bond. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a single bond. 15. A method of treating a condition associated with oxidative stress caused by mitochondrial dysfunction in a patient in need thereof, wherein induction of Nrf2 activity and/or inhibition of nitric oxide production in the patient would be beneficial, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a compound of the formula: wherein: R1 and R2 are independently: hydrogen; or alkenyl(c≤12), alkynyl(c≤12), aryl(c≤12), aralkyl(c≤12), heteroaryl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl(c≤12), acyl(c≤12), alkylsulphonyl, alkenylsulphonyl(c≤12), alkynylsulphonyl(c≤12), arylsulphonyl(c≤12), aralkyl sulphonyl(c≤12), heteroarylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl-sulphonyl(c≤12), or a substituted version of any of these groups; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, tautomers, or optical isomers thereof. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a double bond. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein the bond joining carbon 9 and carbon 11 of the compound is a single bond. 18. A method of inhibiting IFN-γ-induced nitric oxide production in a cell, comprising contacting the cell with a pharmaceutically effective amount of a compound of the formula: wherein: R1 and R2 are independently: hydrogen; or alkenyl(c≤12), alkynyl(c≤12), aryl(c≤12), aralkyl(c≤12), heteroaryl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl(c≤12), acyl(c≤12), alkylsulphonyl, alkenylsulphonyl(c≤12), alkynylsulphonyl(c≤12), arylsulphonyl(c≤12), aralkylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroarylsulphonyl(c≤12), heteroaralkyl-sulphonyl(c≤12), or a substituted version of any of these groups; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, tautomers, or optical isomers thereof. 19.
