Trinickel boride is a compound of nickel and boron with chemical formula Ni
3B. It is one of the borides of nickel.
The compound was described in 1959 by R. Fruchart,[2] S. Rundquist,[3] and L. H. Anderson and R. Kiessling.[4] It is a hard solid with the cementite crystal structure.[5]
Synthesis
[edit ]Trinickel boride can be obtained, as grains embedded in a nickel matrix, by heating Brown's P-1 and P-2 "nickel boride"catalyst to 250 °C. This catalyst is produced by reduction of nickel salts with sodium borohydride.[5]
Trinickel boride can be obtained also by compressing nickel and boron powders with explosives.[6]
Recently it has been found that Ni
3B can be formed (together with other nickel borides) by heating sodium borohydride with powdered nickel metal to 670 °C in a closed vessel, so that the released hydrogen creates a pressure of up to 3.4 MPa. The main reactions can be summarized as
- 2NaBH
4 ↔ 2NaH + B
2H
6 - 3Ni + 2B
2H
6 + NaH ↔ Ni
3B + 3BH
3 + 2H
2 + Na
but other reactions occur, yielding other borides.[7]
