chemoselective reduction of olefins and acetylenes is demonstrated by employing catalytic amounts of ferric chloride hexahydrate (FeCl3⋅6 H2O) and aqueoushydrazine (NH2NH2⋅H2O) as hydrogen source at room temperature. The reduction is chemoselective and tolerates a variety of reducible functional groups. Unlike other metal‐catalysed reduction methods, the present method employs a minimum amount of aqueous hydrazine
