چکیده

Significant advantages result from combining the disparate hydrogen release pathways for ammonia-borane (AB) dehydrogenation using ionic liquids (ILs) and transition metal catalysts. With the RuCl(2)(PMe(3))(4) catalyst precursor, AB dehydrogenation selectivity and extent are maximized in an IL with a moderately coordinating ethylsulfate anion.

Transition metal catalysed dehydrogenation of amine-borane fuel blends.

Mixtures containing ammonia-borane and sec-butylamine-borane remain liquid throughout the hydrogen release process that affords tri(N-sec-butyl)borazine and polyborazylene. Concentrated solutions with metal catalysts afford >5 wt% H(2) in 1 h at 80 °C and addition of (EMIM)EtSO(4) ionic liquid co-solvent eliminates competing formation of insoluble linear poly(aminoborane) (EMIM = 1-ethyl-3-meth...

Coordination of aminoborane, NH(2)BH(2), dictates selectivity and extent of H(2) release in metal-catalysed ammonia borane dehydrogenation.

In situ(11)B NMR monitoring, computational modeling, and external trapping studies show that selectivity and extent of H(2) release in metal-catalysed dehydrogenation of ammonia borane, NH(3)BH(3), are determined by coordination of reactive aminoborane, NH(2)BH(2), to the metal center.

Probing the second dehydrogenation step in ammonia-borane dehydrocoupling: characterization and reactivity of the key intermediate, B-(cyclotriborazanyl)amine-borane.

While thermolysis of ammonia-borane (AB) affords a mixture of aminoborane- and iminoborane oligomers, the most selective metal-based catalysts afford exclusively cyclic iminoborane trimer (borazine) and its B-N cross-linked oligomers (polyborazylene). This catalysed dehydrogenation sequence proceeds through a branched cyclic aminoborane oligomer assigned previously as trimeric B-(cyclodiborazan...

Metal Amidoboranes and Their Derivatives for Hydrogen Storage

As potential hydrogen storage mediums, ammonia borane and its derivatives have been paid an increasing attention owing to their higher hydrogen capacities and facile dehydrogenation properties under moderate conditions. In this chapter, we presented extensive studies on thermodynamic tailoring of dehydrogenation of metal amidobor‐ anes, metal borohydride-ammonia borane complexes, and metal amid...

SE2 reaction in noncarbon system: Metal-halide catalysis for dehydrogenation of ammonia borane

An electrophilic substitution (SE) reaction of BN isosteres has been investigated for the dehydrogenation of ammonia borane (AB) by metal chlorides (MCl2) using various ab initio calculations. In contrast to the typical SE reaction occurring at the carbon atom, the nitrogen atom in AB serves as the reaction center for the SE reaction with the boron moiety as the leaving group when the MCl2 appr...
