Dihydrogen is one of the sustainable energy vectors envisioned for the future. However, the
rapidly reversible and secure storage of large quantities of hydrogen is still a technological …

Since the seminal reports by Shaw and co-workers in the mid-1970s, 1-7 the chemistry of
pincer-ligated transition-metal complexes has experienced tremendous development and …

Ammonia borane (AB), having a high hydrogen density of 19.6 wt%, has attracted much
attention as a promising chemical hydrogen storage material. In the past few years, a …

Hydrogen storage for transportation applications requires high volumetric and gravimetric
storage capacity. B–N compounds are well suited as storage materials due to their light …

Ammonia–borane, H3NBH3, is an intriguing molecule for chemical hydrogen storage
applications. With both protic N–H and hydridic B–H bonds, three H atoms per main group …

We have studied catalytic performance of supported non-noble metals for hydrogen
generation from aqueous NH3BH3 at room temperature. Among the tested non-noble …

We report here the first example of a homogeneous first row transition-metal-based catalyst
which is active for dehydrogenation of ammonia− borane, H3NBH3, a promising chemical …

Nano-clusters of noble metals Ru, Rh, Pd, Pt and Au have been supported on γ-Al2O3, C
and SiO2, of which the catalytic activities have been investigated for hydrolysis of NH3BH3 …

Magnetically recyclable Au@ Co core− shell nanoparticles were successfully synthesized in
a one-step seeding-growth process within a few minutes. They were thermally stable and …
