Reaction Pathways Determined by Mechanical Milling Process for Dehydrogenation/Hydrogenation of the LiNH2/MgH2 System

The dehydrogenation/hydrogenation processes of the LiNH₂/MgH₂ (1:1) system were systematically investigated with respect to balller milling and the subsequent heating process. The reaction pathways for hydrogen desorption/absorption of the LiNH₂/MgH₂ (1:1) system were found to depend strongly on the milling duration due to the presence of two competing reactions in different stages (i.e., the reaction between Mg(NH₂)₂ and MgH₂ and that between Mg(NH₂)₂ and LiH), caused by a metathesis reaction between LiNH₂ and MgH₂, which exhibits more the nature of solid–solid reactions. The study provides us with a new approach for the design of novel hydrogen storage systems and the improvement of hydrogen‐storage performance of the amide/hydride systems.     

Hydrogen storage over alkali metal hydride and alkali metal hydroxide composites

Alkali metal hydroxide and hydride composite systems contain both protic(H bonded with O) and hydridic hydrogen. The interaction of these two types of hydrides produces hydrogen. The enthalpy of dehydrogenation increased with the increase of atomic number of alkali metals,i.e.,-23 kJ/molH2 for LiOH-LiH, 55.34 kJ/molH2 for NaOH-NaH and 222 kJ/molH2 for KOH-KH. These thermodynamic calculation results were consistent with our experimental results. H2 was released from LiOH-LiH system during ball milling. The dehydrogenation temperature of NaOH-NaH system was about 150℃; whereas KOH and KH did not interact with each other during the heating process. Instead, KH decomposed by itself. In these three systems, NaOH-NaH was the only reversible hydrogen storage system, the enthalpy of dehydrogenation was about 55.65 kJ/molH2, and the corresponding entropy was ca. 101.23 J/(molH2 K), so the temperature for releasing 1.0 bar H2 was as high as 518℃, showing unfavorable thermodynamic properties. The activation energy for hydrogen desorption of NaOH-NaH was found to be57.87 kJ/mol, showing good kinetic properties.     

Some peculiarities of interactions in the Hf2Fe−H2 system at low temperatures and high pressures

Hydride formation was studied in the Hf₂Fe−H₂ system at hydrogen pressure of up to 2000 atm in a temperature range from 195 to 295 K. Hydride phases of different compositions were studied by the X-ray diffraction method. The hydrogenation reaction in the system can take two pathways to form two stable hydride phases depending on the conditions of initial hydrogenation. Absorption of hydrogens at a pressure of about 2000 atm yields a hydride which contains two H atoms per metal atom. Models of the arrangement of hydrogen atoms in the crystal lattice of hydride phases were suggested. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of BaLaSi2H0.80

The polyanionic compound BaLaSi₂ featuring cis-trans silicon chains takes up hydrogen to form a hydride BaLaSi₂H_0.80. The crystal structure of the parent intermetallic compound is largely retained upon hydrogenation with the same space group type, a unit cell volume increase of 3.29 % and very similar atomic positions in the hydride. Hydrogen could be located in the crystal structure by neutron diffraction on the deuteride. Deuterium atoms occupy a tetrahedral Ba₃La interstitial with 40.6(2) % occupation (Cmcm, a = 464.43(4) pm, b = 1526.7(1) pm, c = 676.30(6) pm). BaLaSi₂H_0.80 is thus an interstitial Zintl phase hydride like LaSiH_1–x, but unlike BaSiH_2–x does not feature any covalent Si–H bonds. Si–Si distances within the polyanion increase upon hydrogenation from 240.1(6) and 242.9(5) pm to 244.7(2) pm and 245.5(2) pm. This is probably due to oxidation of the polyanion by hydrogen, which leads to the formation of hydride ions and the depopulation of the polyanion's antibonding π* states. Interatomic Ba–D [260.9(4) pm, 295.7(5) pm] and La–D distances [241.2(7) pm] are in the typical range of ionic hydrides.     

La-H化合物对LaMg2Ni合金中Mg2Ni相吸氢过程的影响

采用感应熔炼技术在Ar气氛保护下制备得到LaMg2Ni与Mg2Ni合金。X射线衍射(XRD)图表明LaMg2Ni合金在吸氢过程中分解为LaH3相和Mg2NiH4相,放氢过程中LaH3相转化为La3H7相。与Mg2Ni合金相比,LaMg2Ni合金显示出优良的吸氢动力学性能,这是由于镧氢化合物的存在及其在吸氢过程中所发生的相转变所造成的。LaMg2Ni合金280 s内吸氢即可达到最大储氢量的90%以上,而Mg2Ni合金则需要1200 s才能达到,且在相同温度下LaMg2Ni合金的吸氢反应速率常数大于Mg2Ni合金速率常数。镧氢化合物不仅有利于改善动力学性能,而且可以提高热力学性能。LaMg2Ni合金中的Mg2Ni相氢化反应焓与熵分别为-53.02 kJ.mol-1和84.96 J.K-1.mol-1(H2),这一数值小于单相Mg2Ni氢化反应焓与熵(-64.50 kJ.mol-1,-123.10 J.K-1.mol-1(H2))。压力-组成-温度(P-C-T)测试结果表明在603 K至523 K温度范围内,LaMg2Ni合金储氢容量保持稳定为1.95wt%左右,然而Mg2Ni合金的储氢容量则由4.09wt%衰减为3.13wt%,Mg2Ni合金的储氢容量在523K低温下仅为603 K时的76.5%,表明镧氢化合物能够改善Mg2Ni合金低温下的吸放氢性能。     

Electrochemical behavior of metal hydrides

Directional crystallization of B4C-NbB2 and B4C-MoB2 eutectic compositions

We studied the directional crystallization of different compositions in B₄C-NbB₂ and B₄C-MoB₂ systems. The eutectic compositions for both systems are evaluated. It is shown that in the first system the rod-like eutectic structure is formed, in second, the “Chinese hieroglyphics”. In both cases high hardness and high microplasticity are observed, which are much more than for individual component phases. These compositions may be considered as a new kind of self-strengthening composite materials.     

Sodium Hydride/Trialkylaluminum Complexes for the Controlled Anionic Polymerization of Styrene at High Temperature

Summary: A new generation of anionic initiators (butyllithium free), based on trialkylaluminum and a readily available alkali metal hydride, has been developed for the control of styrene polymerization at high temperature. Triisobutylaluminum and sodium hydride form heterocomplexes that are efficient for the initiation of styrene polymerization at 100 °C in toluene or in bulk. To be active under such conditions, these systems require the presence of an excess of metal hydride with respect to AlR₃ ([Al]/[Na] < 1). PS chains are specifically initiated by the hydrides coming from NaH, and molar masses are controlled in the range 0.8 < [Al]/[Na] < 1. Fast exchange between dormant 1:1 and active 1:2 complexes (Al:Na), and ligand rearrangements within the 1:2 complex, can explain the observed results.

Mechanistic Insights on Reduction of Carboxamides by Diisobutylaluminum Hydride and Sodium Hydride−Iodide Composite

The reaction mechanisms on reduction of tertiary carboxamides by diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL) and sodium hydride (NaH)‐sodium iodide (NaI) composite were elucidated by the computational and experimental approaches. Reduction of N,N‐dimethyl carboxamides with DIBAL provides the corresponding amines, whereas that with the NaH?NaI composite exclusively forms aldehyde even at high reaction temperature. DFT calculations revealed that dimeric structural nature of DIBAL and Lewis acidity on its Al center play crucial role to decompose the tetrahedral anionic carbinol amine intermediate through C?O bond cleavage. On the other hand, in the reduction with the NaH?NaI composite, the resulting tetrahedral anionic carbinol amine intermediate could be kept stable, thus providing aldehydes as a sole product by the aqueous workup     

Complex Reducing Agents (CRA's)—Versatile,Novel Ways of Using Sodium Hydride in Organic Synthesis

Why do we hardly use the simplest and, at the same time, inexpensive reducing agent sodium hydride in organic chemistry? To this question the answer is invariably: “It is too basic”. In this progress report we describe work we have performed aimed at controlling the basicity of NaH using sodium alcoholates and metal salts. The complex reducing agents (CRA's) developed (symbolized NaH-RONa-MX_n) allow organic halides, alkenes, alkynes and ketones to be reduced selectively. Highly regioselective 1,4- and 1,2-reductions of α,β-unsaturated ketones are easily performed using appropriate metal salts. Modified CRA's have proved to be excellent hydrosilylating reagents for carbonyl groups, non-pyrophoric heterogeneous hydrogenation catalysts, coupling reagents for aryl and vinyl halides, and reagents for the carbonylation of organic halides under very mild conditions. The study of these reactions opened up the field to phase-transfer-catalyzed photostimulated carbonylations as well as to S_RN1 reactions of metalates.–Thus, starting from the simple sodium hydride a large number of useful reagents have become accessible.     

新型取代硅桥联茂稀土化合物的合成及在纳米级氢化钠助催化剂作用下高活性催化甲基丙烯酸甲酯聚合的研究

The synthesis and characterization of four new silicon-linked lanthanocene complexes with pendant phenyl groups on cyclopentadiene were reported. Based on the data of elemental analyses, MS and IR, the complexes were presumed to be unsolvated and dimeric complexes [Me2Si(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2LnC1]2 [Ln=Er (1), Gd (2), Sm (3), Dy (4)]. In conjunction with AlEt3 or sodium hydride as the co-catalyst, these complexes could efficiently catalyze the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA). When the nanometric sodium hydride was used as a co-catalyst, the complexes were highly effective for the polymerization of MMA. At low temperature and in short time, in [MeESi(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2LnC1]2/NaH (nanometric) system, the polymer was obtained in more than 80% yield and the molecular weight was greater than 105. The activity reached that of organolanthanide hydride as a single-component catalyst. In ]MeESi(C5H3CMe2C6H5)2ErC1]2/Nail (nanometric) system, the effects of the molar ratio of MMA/catalyst and catalyst/co-catalyst, and the temperature on polymerization were studied.

Hydride complexes of titanium and zirconium attached to SiO2 as hydrogenation catalysts

Catalysts obtained by interacting Ti(CH₂C₆H₅)₄ or Zr(π-C₃H₅)₄ with the surface of SiO₂ and treated with hydrogen possess a very high activity with respect to hydrogenation of benzene and cyclohexene. This activity is commensurable with that of supported Group VIII metals. The catalysts were studied by chemisorption, thermodesorption and EXAFS methods, and were shown to contain anchored hydride complexes of Ti and Zr, whose content can be controlled by varying the temperature of their treatment with hydrogen. A quantitative correlation exists between the specific activity of the catalysts under consideration in hydrogenation reactions and the content of hydride complexes in these catalysts.     

Hydrogen Storage Properties of Ca(BH4)2–LiNH2 System

Ca(BH₄)₂ is one of the promising candidates for hydrogen storage materials because of its high gravimetric and volumetric hydrogen capacity. However, its high dehydrogenation temperature and limited reversibility has been a hurdle for its practical applications. In an effort to overcome these barriers and to adjust the thermal stability, we make a composite system Ca(BH₄)₂–LiNH₂. Interaction of Ca(BH₄)₂ and LiNH₂ leads to decreased dehydrogenation temperatures and increased hydrogen desorption capacity in comparison to pristine Ca(BH₄)₂. More than 7 wt % of hydrogen can be detached at a temperature as low as approximately 178 °C from the cobalt‐catalyzed Ca(BH₄)₂–4 LiNH₂ system.     

Investigations on the solid state interaction between LiAlH4 and NaNH2

In this paper, two LiAlH₄-NaNH₂ samples with LiAlH₄ to NaNH₂ molar ratio of 1/2 and 2/1 were investigated, respectively. It was observed that both samples evolved 2 equiv H₂ in the ball milling process, however, the reaction pathways were different. For the LiAlH₄-NaNH₂ (1/2) sample, Li₃Na(NH₂)₄ and NaAlH₄ were formed through cation exchange between reactants. The NaAlH₄ formed further reacts with Li₃Na(NH₂)₄ and NaNH₂ to give H₂, NaH and LiAlN₂H₂. For the LiAlH₄-NaNH₂ (2/1) sample, Li₃Na(NH₂)₄, LiNH₂ and NaAlH₄ were formed firstly through the same cation exchange process. The resulting LiNH₂ reacts with the remaining LiAlH₄ and produces H₂ and Li₂AlNH₂.
