Abstract
This paper proposes methyl formate (MF) as a novel hydrogen storage material. Utilizing appropriate catalysts, hydrogen production from MF is significantly faster than with other established chemical hydrogen carriers under mild conditions. The optimized system shows high activity (TOFmax > 44,000 h−1 and TON > 100,000) and selectivity (undetectable CO). Solvent-free dehydrogenation demonstrates its application potential.
