“Reactions between Criegee Intermediates and Formic Acid: Detailed Mechanism and Rate Coefficient”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38116617

The study investigates the detailed mechanism of the reactions between Criegee intermediates and formic acid, finding that they produce hydroperoxyethyl formate conformers and formic acetic anhydride, with a rate coefficient of (2.1 ± 0.7) × 10-10 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 for the initial reaction.
