Here are some hints ...

Anaerobic chambers , degassing solutions , liquid nitrogen , gases used as reagents for synthesis etc...
 


I've used carbon monoxide gas to make ethyl esters from enol triflates. Carbon monoxide is commonly used for carbonylation reactions in organic synthesis. Hydrogen gas is used ALL THE TIME to reduce double and triples bonds, nitriles, dehalogenate, etc.
