Application

Boric anhydride in sulfuric acid may be used as a scrubber to remove the hydrogen fluoride gas formed as a byproduct during the selective reduction of ketones to hydrocarbons using triethylsilane and boron trifluoride. In combination with hydroxyapatite, it may be used to catalyze the vapor-phase Beckmann rearrangement process to form nylon-6.

A facile strategy based on the reaction of urea and boric acid is developed for the synthesis of toxicity-free BCNO nanocrystals containing carbon impurities and which exhibit efficient multi-color fluorescence under both single-photon and two-photon excitation.
