Oleylamine-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoparticles were in situ generated from the reduction of ruthenium(III) chloride by dimethylamine-borane during its dehydrogenation at room temperature. Nearly monodispersed ruthenium(0) nanoparticles of 1.8 +/- 0.7 nm size were reproducibly isolated from the reaction solution by filtration and characterized by TEM, XRD, HRTEM, B-11 NMR, ATR-IR and UV-visible spectroscopy. Oleylamine-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoparticles are highly active catalyst in hydrogen generation from dimethylamine-borane providing a release of 1.0 equivalent H-2 per mole of dimethylamine-borane and an initial turnover frequency of 137 (mol H-2) (mol Ru)(-1) (h)(-1) at 25.0 +/- 0.5 degrees C. By considering the activity and stability of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles, the optimum ratio of stabilizer to the catalyst was found to be 3.0. Oleylamine-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoparticles with a stabilizer to ruthenium ratio of 3.0 are stable and reusable catalyst providing 20,660 turnovers in hydrogen generation from dimethylamine-borane at 25.0 +/- 0.5 degrees C. They preserve 75% of their initial catalytic activity even after the fifth run of dehydrogenation of dimethylamine-borane with the complete conversion of Me2NHBH3 to [Me2NBH2](2) plus 1 equivalent of H-2 at room temperature. The report also includes the detailed kinetic study of the dehydrogenation of dimethylamine-borane catalyzed by oleylamine-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoparticles depending on the catalyst concentration, substrate concentration, and temperature as well as the activation parameters of catalytic reaction calculated from the kinetic data. The poisoning experiments showed that the dehydrogenation of dimethylamine-borane catalyzed by ruthenium(0) nanoparticles is heterogeneous catalysis.

When hydrazine borane is added to the solution of nickel(II) chloride and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid), PSSMA, both reduction of nickel(II) ions to nickel(0) nanoparticles and hydrogen release from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane occur concomitantly at room temperature. Using the hydrogen evolution from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane as reporter reaction provides valuable insights to the formation kinetics of nickel(0) nanoparticles. Nickel(0) nanoparticles are in situ formed from the ...
Ceria supported ruthenium nanoparticles: Remarkable catalyst for H-2 evolution from dimethylamine borane
KARABOĞA, SEDA; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2019-10-08)
Ceria supported ruthenium nanoparticles (Ru-0/CeO2) are synthesized by impregnation of Ru3+ ions on CeO2 powders followed by sodium borohydride reduction of Ru3+/CeO2. Their characterization was achieved using analytical methods including TEM, XRD, BET, SEM, and XPS. All the results reveal the formation of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles in 1.8 +/- 0.3 nm size on CeO2 support. Ru-0/GeO2 nanoparticles show high activity in catalyzing the H-2 evolution from dimethylamine borane (DMAB). Ru-0/CeO2 nanoparticles with...
