Alkali hydrazinidoboranes MN2H3BH3 (M = Li, Na, K, Rb) have been developed for hydrogen storage. To complete the family of MN2H3BH3, we focused on cesium hydrazinidoborane CsN2H3BH3 (CsHB). It has been synthesized by reaction of cesium with hydrazine borane (N2H4BH3) at -20 degrees C under inert atmosphere, and it has been characterized. A crystalline solid (monoclinic, s.g. P2(1) (No. 4)) has been obtained. Its potential for hydrogen storage has been studied by combining different techniques. It was found that, under heating at constant heating rate (5 degrees C min(-1)) or at constant temperature (e.g. 120 degrees C), CsHB decomposes rather than it dehydrogenates. It releases several unwanted gaseous products (e.g. NH3, B2H6) together with H-2, and transforms into a residue that poses safety issues because of shock-sensitivity and reactivity towards O-2/H2O. Though the destabilization brought by Cs+ onto the anion [N2H3BH3](-) has been confirmed, the effect is not efficient enough to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks. All of our results are presented herein and discussed within the context of solid-state hydrogen storage. (C) 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
