- Additional information
- This Leverhulme Trust funded work (RPG-2015-097) reports the first example of hydrogen atom migration between a mono-substituted borohydride ligand and a transition metal centre. This is significant because hydride migrations are involved as fundamental reaction steps within nearly all catalytic reactions. The results of this research are the first steps towards the development of transition metal-based materials for safer hydrogen generation, storage and transport. This will lower costs and improve efficiency across a broad range of industrially relevant catalytic reactions.
