Boron-based hydrides such as [R3BH]−, R = organic group, are effective stoichiometric hydride transfer reagents with high hydricities. They are widely used in synthetic chemistry for the reduction of carbonyl compounds. However, the high energy cost associated with their multistep preparations, starting from alkali metals, precludes their large-scale implementation. We will target in our 3-year program the electrochemical synthesis of borohydride catalysts for the hydrogenation of polar C=O bonds, such as those found in ketones, esters, and CO2. This is a unique and more sustainable approach to chemical synthesis as harmful waste associated with stochiometric use of chemical reductant is avoided.

基于硼的氢化物，例如[R3BH] - ，R =有机体，是具有高液压的有效化学计量氢化物转移试剂。它们被广泛用于合成化学中，用于还原羰基化合物。但是，从碱金属开始，与他们的多步兵制剂相关的高能源成本排除了它们的大规模实施。我们将在三年计划中针对硼氢化物催化剂的电化学合成，用于极性C = O键的氢化，例如在酮，酯和CO2中发现的键。这是一种独特，更可持续的化学合成方法，因为避免了与化学还原的静相测定法相关的有害废物。
