“…In this regard, several efficient catalyst systems have been reported involving Ru, Co and Rh NPs [10], Au NPs [11], Cu (airstable), Ag, and Au NPs [4,12] monometallic Au, Ag, Cu, Pd, Ir and bimetallic CuAg and CuAu alloy NPs [13]. Additionally, many transition metal catalysts involving Rh [14e16], Ru [17,18], bimetallic NiPd [19], Ag [20], borane-based catalyst (CoeB, NieB and CueB) [21] have been tested for solutionphase dehydrogenation of amine borane but there is no report concerning the use of dimethylamine-borane by solvent-free approach.…”
