Description

Lithium bis(oxalato)borate (LBBO), also known as Lithiumbis(oxalato)borate, is a lithium salt of the borate ester. The optimum concentration for LBBO is 1-2 mol/L. LBBO is soluble in water and reacts with glycol esters to form lithium glycolates. This reaction is reversible and the equilibrium can be shifted by changing the temperature or pressure. The NMR spectra of LBBO show a peak at 3.3 ppm which corresponds to the carbon atom attached to the carbonyl group, which is indicative of an organic solution.
LBBO has been shown to be an electrolyte for lithium ion batteries but it has not been studied extensively because it decomposes at temperatures above 400°C and exhibits poor transport properties, limiting its application in electronic devices.
