The storage of hydrogen is the key technology for a sustainable future. We developed an in silico procedure, which is based on the combination of experimental and quantum-chemical methods. This method was used to evaluate energetic parameters for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions of various pyrazine derivatives as a seminal liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC), that are involved in the hydrogen storage technologies. With this in silico tool, the tempo of the reliable search for suitable LOHC candidates will accelerate dramatically, leading to the design and development of efficient materials for various niche applications.

We propose and discuss an efficient scheme for the in silico sampling for parts of the molecular low-energy chemical space by semiempirical tight-binding methods combined with a meta-dynamics driven search algorithm.

Reactions between water clusters containing the superoxide anion, O2˙−(H2O)n (n = 0–4), and formic acid, HCO2H, were studied experimentally in vacuo and modelled using quantum chemical methods.
