FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The invention relates to new catalytic materials of specific composition and molecular structure, which are able to catalyze and improve efficiency of chemical reactions involving hydrogen transfer. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Many chemical reactions in both inorganic and organic chemistry involve relocation of hydrogen atoms, ions (protons), or molecules, which need to be transferred from one chemical molecule to another molecule, or exchanged with other atoms, ions or radicals in the reaction route. Amongst many such reactions, the most common types are: hydrogenation and dehydrogenation, reduction / oxidation, various types of reactions involving organic compounds, electrochemical reactions, and reactions in all types of fuel cells. All these reactions may exhibit a wide spectrum of various types of chemical bonding and various underlying atomic-scale mechanisms, as well as different nature of atomic interactions. In all of them, there is howeve...
