This Review focuses on the development of metal aminoboranes; it discusses their synthesis, structure, chemical characterization, and applications. The lightweight nature of the molecules, the simplified procedures for the synthesis of the target compounds, the reversibility of hydrogen storage and dehydrogenation, and in-depth research on the mechanism of the thermal decomposition are also discussed. A major challenge that still remains is how to combine the advantages of the compounds to produce a material that is not only able to release and absorb hydrogen under atmospheric conditions, but is also lightweight with a stable molecular structure.

Article Synopsis
  • Six stereoisomers of a specific compound were designed, and their molecular geometries were optimized using advanced computational methods to assess stability.
  • The absence of imaginary frequencies suggests that all structures studied are likely stable, with certain symmetric forms being more favorable than others.
  • The study also involved calculating heats of formation and densities, leading to the conclusion that two of these compounds could be promising candidates for energetic materials due to their explosive potential.
