A chiral one of these reactions is named for Corey, Bakshi, and Shibata, and the addition to a ketone dissolved in diethylene glycol of hydrazone is the Wolff-Kishner one. Borane can cause it in carboxylic acids, and in organic compounds this process is the decrease of some carbon's number of bonds to heteroatoms. Good agents for this process include hydride donors like LAH, as well as alkali metals, as the latter readily form cations. For 10 points, name this process in which a substance gains electrons and decreases in formal charge, the complement to oxidation.
