The Wolff-Kishner reaction uses hydrazine (H2NNH2) and hydroxide (-OH) to reduce a carbonyl to the alkane. The first steps of the mechanism convert a carbonyl to a hydrazone in a manner similar to imine formation. Draw the mechanism arrows for the reaction from the hydrazone to the alkane. Be sure to add lone pairs of electrons and nonzero formal charges to all species.
