  • Patent number: 8822714
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a more advanced preparation method of organic-transition metal hydride as a hydrogen storage material, precisely a more advanced preparation method of organic-transition metal hydride containing aryl or alkyl group that facilitates safe and reverse storage of massive amount of hydrogen. The present invention relates to a preparation method of an organic-transition metal hydride comprising the steps of preparing a complex reducing agent composition by reacting alkali metal, alkali earth metal or a mixture thereof and (C10-C20) aromatic compound in aprotic polar solvent and preparing organic-transition metal hydride by reacting the prepared complex reducing agent composition and organic transition metal halide. The method of the present invention has advantages of minimizing the numbers and the amounts of byproducts by using a complex reducing agent and producing organic-transition metal hydride safely without denaturation under more moderate reaction conditions.

  • Patent number: 8354553
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved preparation method of an organic-transition metal hydride as a hydrogen storage material, especially an improved preparation method of an organic-transition metal hydride containing aryl or alkyl group that facilitates safe and reversible storage of a massive amount of hydrogen. The present invention also relates to a preparation method of an organic-transition metal hydride comprising the steps of: preparing a complex reducing agent composition by reacting alkali metal, alkali earth metal or a mixture thereof and a C10 to C20 aromatic compound in aprotic polar solvent; and preparing the organic-transition metal hydride by reacting the prepared complex reducing agent composition with an organic-transition metal halide in the absence of a hydrogen source.

  • Patent number: 7790911
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an advanced preparation method of organic-transition metal hydride used as hydrogen storage materials, the method including: preparing organic-transition metal-aluminum hydride complexes by reacting the organic-transition metal halide with metal aluminum hydride compounds; and preparing the organic-transition metal hydride by reacting the organic-transition metal aluminum hydride complexes with Lewis bases. Since the preparation method of the organic-transition metal hydride according to the present invention does not use catalysts, it has advantages that it does not cause problems due to poisoning and can prepare the organic-transition metal hydride at high yield under less stringent conditions. The hydrogen storage materials containing the organic-transition metal hydride prepared from the preparation method can safely and reversibly store a large amount of hydrogen.

  • Publication number: 20100022791
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an organic-transition metal complex which can safely and reversibly store hydrogen in a high capacity, and a process for preparing the same. In order to achieve the objects, the hydrogen storage material according to the invention comprises a complex generated by combination of an organic substance containing a hydroxyl (—OH) group(s) with a transition metal containing compound, which can more effectively store hydrogen with more than one transition metal being bonded per molecule. Examples of the organic substances containing hydroxyl (—OH) group(s) include alkyl derivatives such as ethylene glycol, trimethylene glycol and glycerol, and hydroxyl-containing aryl derivatives such as fluoroglucinol. As the transition metal, titanium (Ti), vanadium (V) and scandium (Sc), which can make Kubas binding, may be mentioned.
