Recycle of tin thiolate compounds relevant to ammonia–borane regeneration

The use of benzenedithiol as a digestant for ammonia–borane spent fuel has been shown to result in tin thiolate compounds which we demonstrate can be recycled, yielding Bu3SnH and ortho-benzenedithiol for reintroduction to the ammonia–borane regeneration scheme.
