          Appeal No. 95-4081                                                          
          Application 08/071,895                                                      

               dioctyldithiocarbamate, and barium heptylphenyl                        
               dithiocarbamate;  Group II metal phosphorodithioates such[8]                                                    
               as zinc dicyclohexylphosphoro-dithioate, zinc                          
               dioctylphosphorodithioate, barium di(heptylphenyl)-                    
               phosphorodithioate, cadmium dinonylphosphorodithioate,                 
               and the zinc salt of a phosphorodithioic acid produced by              
               the reaction of phosphorus pentasulfide with an equimolar              
               mixture of isopropyl alcohol and n-hexyl alcohol.                      
                    Many of the above-mentioned auxiliary extreme                     
               pressure agents and corrosion-oxidation inhibitors also                
               serve as antiwear agents.  Zinc                                        
               dialkylphosphorodithioates are a well known example.                   
                    14. Burjes differs from the subject matter of claim               
          26 in that it does not describe the presence of the borate                  
          ester called for by paragraph (i) of claim 26.                              

                                        Braid                                         
                    15. Braid describes borate esters which are made by               
          reacting a hydroxy-containing organophosphorus compound,                    
          having at least one sulfur atom with a boron compound.  See,                
          e.g., Example 2 wherein boric acid [a boron compound] and O,O-              
          ditolyl-S-(2-hydroxypropyl)phosphorodithioate [a hydroxy-                   
          containing organophosporous compound] is refluxed in benzene.               

             Zinc dioctyldithiocarbamate and barium heptylphenyl dithiocarbamate are8                                                                        
          dithiocarbamate containing compounds within the scope of paragraph (ii) of claim 26.
