Publication number: 20140373984Abstract: Disclosed are hypergolic salts with borane cluster anions that ignite spontaneously upon contact with nitric acid (from 70% to 100% in water) with short ignition delay. The salts, when added as trigger additive to combustible solvent or ionic liquids, make the resulting formulation hypergolic. The salts with borane cluster anions also shorten ignition delay in hypergols, such as RP-1, and additionally allow nitric acid to be used to replace liquid oxygen as an oxidizer. In some examples, the borane salts are formed in situ in an ionic liquid.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2014Publication date: December 25, 2014Inventors: Parker D. McCrary, Robin D. Rogers

Patent number: 8907107Abstract: A compound of formula (I) is described in which each A, which may be the same or different, is a halide selected from fluoride, chloride, bromide and iodide, or is O—Y, wherein Y is a substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched chain alkyl moiety. R1, R2, R3, R6, R7, and R8 are each independently H, OH, NO2 or O-L-X, wherein L is a spacer group, and X is a conjugation group or a water-solubilizing group. At least one of R1, R2, R3 is OH or O-L-X and at least one of R6, R7, and R8 is OH or O-L-X. R4 and R5, which may be the same or different, are each independently H; or are a substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, cyclic moiety; a substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic moiety; or a substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched chain alkyl moiety. Also described are dye conjugates comprising a compound of the invention.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2010Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Assignee: Hae Therapeutics LimitedInventor: Donal O'Shea
