Abstract

The observation presented by Halupka and Sander that the infrared bands due to minor species of formic acid in Ar matrices at 7-10 K, following trapping from a supersonic cold gaseous jet, are due not to higher aggregates but to an open chain (HCO₂H₂) species with an energetically favorable arrangement of the two C double bond O dipoles. The mixture HCO₂H molecules in higher aggregates are as numerous as those in cyclic (HCO₂H)₂.
