Abstract
A process for production of a metal hydride compound MH, wherein x is one or two and M is an alkali metal, Be or Mg. The process comprises combining a compound of formula (RO)M with aluminum, hydrogen and at least one metal selected from among titanium, zirconium, hafnium, niobium, vanadium, tantalum and iron to produce a compound of formula MH. Ris phenyl or phenyl substituted by at least one alkyl or alkoxy group. A mole ratio of aluminum to (RO)M is from 0.1:1 to 1:1.
