    Inventors: George R. Kracke, Yulia Sevryugina, Marion Frederick Hawthorne
  • Patent number: 10179795
    Abstract: The present invention relates in general to a method for the synthesis and purification of 1) the polyhedral borane decahydrodecaborate and dodecahydrododecaborate anions and their salts and 2) amines and amine boranes. The organoammonium halide is combined with alkali metal tetrahydroborate to form organoammonium tetrahydroborate, which upon pyrolysis provides organoammonium decahydrodecaborate and organoammonium dodecahydrododecaborate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: January 15, 2019
    Assignee: THE CURATORS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
    Inventors: Alexander Valentinovich Safronov, Satish Subray Jalisatgi, Marion Frederick Hawthorne
  • Patent number: 10059599
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for the synthesis of alkali metal tetrahydroborates-10B and amine borane-10B precursors, such as sodium tetrahydroborate-10B and triethylamine borane-10B.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: August 28, 2018
    Assignee: THE CURATORS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
    Inventors: Alexander Valentinovich Safronov, Satish Subray Jalisatgi, Marion Frederick Hawthorne
  • Patent number: 9598352
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and devices for producing polyhedral boron compounds. The process is generally an anhydrous, one-pot process that comprises a pyrolytic reaction of a tetraborohydride with a quaternary amine salt to form the polyhedral borane. In another aspect of the present invention, polyhedral boranes are produced, without isolation of the Lewis base-borane complex.

  • Publication number: 20170007700
    Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for boron neutron capture therapy. In particular, the disclosure relates to therapy using liposomal Na3[1-(2?-B10H9)-2-NH3B10H8] and K[nido-7-CH3(CH2)15-7,8-C2B9H11] sources. A composition for boron neutron capture therapy, comprising a liposome having an aqueous core and an encapsulating bilayer, wherein the aqueous core comprises Na3[1-(2?-B10H9)-2-NH3B10H8] (TAC) and the encapsulating bilayer comprises K[nido-7-CH3(CH2)15-7,8-C2B9H11] (MAC) is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9217002
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel cluster boron compounds and their use as sodium channel blockers. In particular, the novel cluster boron compounds may be lidocaine analogs where the aromatic ring of the lidocaine molecule is replaced with a cluster boron group. The invention also provides methods for making the cluster boron compounds comprising contacting a halogenated cluster boron with an amino acetamide in the presence of a catalyst, a proton acceptor, and a ligand.
