A series of crystalline sp -sp diboron(4) compounds were synthesized and shown to promote the facile reduction of water with dihydrogen formation. The application of these diborons as simple and effective dihydrogen and dideuterium sources was demonstrated by conducting a series of selective reductions of alkynes and alkenes, and hydrogen-deuterium exchange reactions using two-chamber reactors. Finally, as the water reduction reaction generates an intermediate borohydride species, a range of aldehydes and ketones were reduced by using water as the hydride source.
一系列的 sp-sp 二硼（4）晶体化合物被合成出来，并被证明可以促进水的还原反应，生成氢气。这些二硼化合物作为简单有效的氢气和重氢源，通过使用双室反应器进行一系列炔烃和烯烃的选择性还原以及氢氘交换反应得到了应用。最后，由于水还原反应生成了中间的硼氢化物物种，因此可以使用水作为氢化物源来还原一系列醛和酮。
