Q. The heating of carbonyl compounds with $H_{2} NN H_{2}$ and strong base is called

Wolf-Kishner reduction

Clemmensen reduction

Rosenmund reduction

Catalytic reduction

The heating of carbonyl compounds with $H_{2} NN H_{2}$ and strong base is called Wolf-Kishner reduction.

$RC H = O + H_{2} NN H_{2} \to RC H = NN H_{2} \to St ro n g base RC H_{3} + N_{2}$
