We propose two methods to facilitate the Mg-H bond cleavage of magnesium hydride Mg H2. We found via density functional calculations that Mn (or Fe), when inserted between two Mg H2, exhibits a much higher catalytic activity than the other 3d transition metal elements because of the induced spin pol...
