The addition of organometallic reagents to unsaturated bonds is one of the most powerful tools for carbon–carbon bond formations. Alkylation through organometallic reagents requires stoichiometric quantity of metal and tedious anhydrous operation in most cases. Here, we report “umpolung” nucleophilic additions of hydrazones to Michael acceptors, carbonyls and imines in water. Under the catalysis of ruthenium(II), the addition reactions could be carried out in pure water to provide various alkylation products in moderate to good yields.
