Abstract

Results of the investigation of mechanochemical reactions of the synthesis of diborane (6) B2H6 from M*BH4 (M* = Li, Na, K) and halides of polyvalent metals MXn , adducts of BH3 borane with nitrogen-containing organic Lewis bases (L) of the L . BH3 type, borazine H3B3N3H3 from M*BH4 and NH4Cl, tetrahydroborates of transition metals M(BH4) n (M = Zr, Hf, U, Ti) from MXn and M*BH4 are generalized. Reactions were performed under mechanical activation of mixtures of crystalline reactants in vacuum ball mills in the absence of solvents. Rotary and vibratory mechanical activators were used. The listed reactions can serve as the basis for mechanochemical technologies. Technological aspects of the application of borane compounds are considered.
