Copper(I) hydride (cuprous hydride, CuH) was the first binary metal hydride to be discovered (in 1844) and is singular in that it is synthesized in solution, at ambient temperature. There are several synthetic paths to CuH, one of which involves reduction of an aqueous solution of CuSO4·5H2O by borohydride ions. The product from this procedure has not been extensively characterized. Using a combination of diffraction methods (X-ray and neutron) and inelastic neutron scattering spectroscopy, we show that the CuH from the borohydride route has the same bulk structure as CuH produced by other routes. Our work shows that the product consists of a core of CuH with a shell of water and that this may be largely replaced by ethanol. This offers the possibility of modifying the properties of CuH produced by aqueous routes.

ABSTRACTIncoherent inelastic neutron scattering (IINS) measurements of hydrogen bound to Ir6 clusters in the nanoscale pores of zeolite NaY and similar clusters in KL zeolite are reported. On the basis of hydrogen uptake measurements and the observation of peaks in the IINS spectra, we infer that hydrogen is bound to the metal nanoclusters in the zeolite pores. The HINS data for both zeolites are similar and consistent with the presence of IrH2 species.
