Spontaneous generation of hydrogen from water using modified dodecaborate ions
Abstract
The electronic structures of [B 12 X n ] q (X = Br, I, CN; n = 11, 10; q = 2−, 1−, 0) and the thermodynamics of their interaction with water were explored. Among these, [B 12 X 10 ] − (X = Br, I) are the most suitable for spontaneous hydrogen generation.
