摘要

A method for producing hydrogen comprising the steps of:
i) contacting a compound (C) comprising one or more groups Si-H with an amine based catalyst in a solvent selected from an alcohol or an aqueous solution, thereby forming hydrogen and a by-product (C1) ;
wherein said amine based catalyst is as defined in claim 1;
