He studied at the University of Kazan in Russia, the cradle of Russian chemistry professors, where he found competent guidance of a distinguished chemist, Alexander M. Zaĭtsev. Reformatsky then studied at Göttingen, Heidelberg, and Leipzig in Germany. After returning to Russia, Reformatsky became the Chair of Organic Chemistry at the University of Kiev.
