Just over a century ago, in 1911, the two papers that are the subject of this abridged translation (2) appeared in the Zhurnal Russkago Fiziko-Khimicheskago Obshchestva. The first describes the reactions of the hydrazones (generically called alkylidenehydrazines in the papers) from saturated ketones with potassium hydroxide to give the corresponding saturated hydrocarbon. The second describes the reaction of the hydrazones of aldehydes and unsaturated ketones with potassium hydroxide to give hydrocarbons. These two papers established the basic requirements for the reduction of carbonyl compounds through base-promoted decomposition of the hydrazones. Eighteen months later, Ludwig Wolff published his version of the same reaction, by heating semicarbazones with sodium ethoxide to give the corresponding hydrocarbons (3).
