31. Cello-oligosaccharides can be chemically reduced through the action of sodium borohydride to produce their corresponding sugar alcohols. 32. Brown and Schlesinger successfully synthesized volatile uranium ( IV ) borohydride , which had a molecular weight of 298. 33. Sodium borohydride is a mild reducing agent that works well in reducing aldehydes, ketones, and acid chlorides. 34. Uranium hexafluoride is very corrosive, which presented serious handling difficulties, leading to serious consideration of the borohydride . 35. The P " 2 form is prepared similarly from Nickel ( II ) acetate and sodium borohydride in ethanol. 36. Sodium borohydride presents a fire hazard owing to its reducing nature and the liberation of hydrogen on contact with acid. 37. Other known binary compounds include halides ( nitrate, or borohydride ( [ [ Lithium borohydride | ] ] ). 38. Other known binary compounds include halides ( nitrate, or borohydride ( [ [ Lithium borohydride | ] ] ). 39. Borohydrides can serve as ligands for many metals, and there is a large coordination chemistry of the borohydride ion. 40. Because the reactant ( sodium borohydride , NaBH 4 ) contains no carbon, the vehicle produces no carbon dioxide.
