Case Western Reserve University used bicyclic-borate complexes as an alternative anion for lithium ion batteries to study flame retardant types of ions, or FRIons. This research was presented at a meeting of the American Chemical Society as part of the 245th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society.

Bicyclic-borate complexes have been synthesized for use as an alternative anion for lithium ion batteries in hopes that they will provide insight into more flame retardant types of ions, or FRIons. This synthesis has been done through azeotropic distillations and solvent-free methods utilizing boronic acids. The current bicyclic compounds being produced were inspired by creating derivatives of lithium bis(oxalato) borate, also known as LiBOB.
