A functionalized MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework for enhanced hydrogen release from ammonia borane at low temperature

Chem Commun (Camb). 2013 Nov 21;49(90):10629-31. doi: 10.1039/c3cc45719b.

Abstract

Hydrogen released from ammonia borane in MIL-101(Cr) can be significantly improved by the attached amino and amide groups. The release with minimum impurities starts at 68 °C, reaching 1.6 equivalent of ammonia borane at 85 °C for the amino modified MOFs (NH2-MIL-101).
