Professional Background
News & Publications
A team of chemistry researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has developed a unique approach to harnessing the sun’s energy to produce hydrogen gas, a potential clean energy source, from water, according to a paper published in Nature Chemistry.
Here, we show that in the presence of pyridinium tetrafluoroborate, [CpW(CO)3]− reacts further to form a metal hydride complex CpW(CO)3H.
