Class of chemical compounds
The borate oxalates are chemical compounds containing borate and oxalate anions . Where the oxalate group is bound to the borate via oxygen, a more condensed anion is formed that balances less cations . These can be termed boro-oxalates , bis(oxalato)borates , or oxalatoborates or oxalate borates . The oxalatoborates are heterocyclic compounds with a ring containing -O-B-O-. Bis(oxalato)borates are spiro compounds with rings joined at the boron atom.
Oxalatoborates are used or for research in lithium-ion battery electrolytes and for supercapacitors .
Production
Oxalatoborates have been produced by heating boric acid , oxalic acid and one of a metal oxalate, a metal carbonate or an amine in boiling benzene .[ 1]
Properties
When heated, oxalaotoborates decompose at around 320 °C to yield a metaborate , carbon monoxide , and carbon dioxide .[ 1]
