I made som P1-Ni2B today just to see how active it was with a couple of my standard hydrogen donors.
with aq. sodium hypophosphite - very active at room temp
with MeOH/sodium hypophosphite - very active at room temp
with aq ammonium formate - active at room temp, very active at 50°C
with MeOH/ammonium formate - active at room temp, very active at 50°C
Now it is time to reduce something
