Bis(perchlorocatecholato)silane and bidentate N,N- or N,P-heteroleptic donors form hexacoordinated complexes. Depending on the ring strain and hemilability in the adducts, Frustrated Lewis pair reactivity with aldehydes and catalytic ammonia borane...
Herein, by applying zirconium-hydride complex as the catalyst, the transfer hydrogenation of quinoline and indole derivatives with ammonia borane as the proton and hydride source is achieved. Up to 94%...
Developing low-cost and highly active hydrolysis catalytic materials for the dehydrogenation of hydrogen-rich chemicals is a promising strategy to store and easily release hydrogen for fuel cell applications. In this...
