TL;DR: According to high-temperature X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry this nickel boride phase has a narrow stability window between 300 and 424 °C, and shows an exothermic effect at424 °C.
Abstract: We trapped an unknown metastable boride by applying low-temperature solution synthesis. Single-phase nickel boride, Ni7B3, was obtained as bulk samples of microcrystalline powders when annealing the amorphous, nanoscale precipitate that is formed in aqueous solution of nickel chloride upon reaction with sodium tetrahydridoborate. Its crystal structure was solved based on a disordered Th7Fe3-type model (hexagonal crystal system, space group P63mc, no. 186, a = 696.836(4) pm, c = 439.402(4) pm), using synchrotron X-ray powder data. Magnetic measurements reveal paramagnetism, which is in accordance with quantum chemical calculations. According to high-temperature X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry this nickel boride phase has a narrow stability window between 300 and 424 °C. It crystallizes at ca. 350 °C, then starts decomposing to form Ni3B and Ni2B above 375 °C, and shows an exothermic effect at 424 °C.

TL;DR: In this article, an efficient and mild methodology for the reductive deprotection of 1,3-dioxolanes, acetals and ketals to the corresponding aldehydes/ketones and also deprocessing with concomitant reduction to corresponding alcohols was achieved in quantitative yields using nickel boride generated in situ from nickel chloride and sodium borohydride in methanol.
Abstract: An efficient and mild methodology for the reductive deprotection of 1,3-dioxolanes, acetals and ketals to the corresponding aldehydes/ketones and also deprotection with concomitant reduction to the corresponding alcohols has been achieved in quantitative yields using nickel boride generated in situ from nickel chloride and sodium borohydride in methanol. The reactions are chemoselective as halo, alkoxy and methylenedioxy groups are unaffected.
