Abstract: | A new graphite intercalation compound containing the bis(oxalato)borate anion, B[OC(O)C(O)O]2−, is prepared for the first time by chemical oxidation of graphite with fluorine gas in the presence of a solution containing the intercalate anion in anhydrous hydrofluoric acid. The products of stage 1-3 compounds are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and elemental analyses. X-ray diffraction data indicate a standing-up orientation for the borate anion, with long axis perpendicular to the graphene sheets. Elemental analyses provide x and δ for the nominal composition of CxB[OC(O)C(O)O]2·δF, where the chelate borate and fluoride are co-intercalates, and indicate a low borate, and high fluoride, intercalate content as compared to anion packing in other graphite intercalation compounds. |
