Application

Potassium borohydride (KBH4) can be used as a reducing agent for the synthesis of:       
  • Copper nanoparticles by the reduction of copper salts.
  •  Enantioselective allylic alcohols by the catalytic reduction of enones and ketones in the presence of chiral N,N′-dioxidescandium(III) complex catalyst.,·        
  • Azoxybenzenes by the reduction of nitroarenes in the presence of phase transfer catalyst PEG-400.

It can also be employed as a boron source in the nickel–boron alloy, which is electrodeposited on carbon fiber to improve catalytic graphitization of carbon.

The first catalytic enantioselective 1,2-reduction of enones with 0.45 mol equiv potassium borohydride solution catalyzed by a chiral N,N'-dioxide-Sc(III) complex catalyst was accomplished under mild reaction conditions. A number of optically active allylic alcohols were obtained in good to excellent

Bacterial 5-oxoprolinase is composed of two protein components: Component A, which catalyzes 5-oxoproline-dependent ATP-hydrolysis and Component B, which couples the hydrolysis of ATP with the decyclization of 5-oxoproline to form glutamate (Seddon, A. P., Li, L., and Meister, A. (1984)

Reduction with [3H]KBH4 of Schiff's bases generated by reaction with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (which cannot penetrate the intact cytoplasmic membrane) yields tritium-labeled derivatives of both proteins and lipids accessible on the periplasmic side of the cytoplasmic membrane.
