A novel carbon-carbon double-bond reductase was isolated from the cells of baker's yeast. The reduction of c~,[~-unsaturated ketones catalyzed by this enzyme affords the corresponding saturated (S)-ketones selectively.

The reaction of dispiro[cyclopropane-l,l'-indan-3',1"-cyclopropane]-2'-one (1) under Wolff-Kishner conditions gives spiro[cyclopropane-l,l'-indan] (2) in which the ketone has been reduced and two bonds of one cyclopropane ring have been cleaved. The Wolff-Kishner reaction is a classic method for
