Formic versus carbonous acid

Treatment of Warts with Topical Formic Acid

Cytenamide–formic acid (1/1)

IN THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclo-hepta-triene-5-carboxamide-meth-anoic acid (1/1)], C(16)H(13)NO·CH(2)O(2), the cytenamide and solvent mol-ecules form a hydrogen-bonded R(2) (2)(8) dimer motif, which is further connected to form a centrosymmetric double-motif arrangement. The asymmetric unit contains two formula units.

Submillimeter Spectrum of Formic Acid

We have measured new submillimeter-wave data around 600 GHz and around 1.1 THz for the C isotopologue of formic acid and for the two deuterium isotopomers; in each case for both the trans and cis rotamer. For cis-DCOOH and cis-HCOOD in particular only data up to 50 GHz was previously available. For all species the quality and quantity of molecular parameters has been increased providing new mea...

Enzymic oxidation of formic acid.

Interest in the metabolic fate of formic acid has been renewed as the result of recent experiments showing active incorporation of carbon-labeled formate into normal body constituents of the pigeon (l-3) and the rat (4, 5). Prior to these findings, enzymes capable of catalyzing the oxidation of formic acid had been reported, widely distributed in plant and animal tissues (6). Only in the case o...

Passive direct formic acid microfabricated fuel cells

This paper reports on microscale silicon-based direct formic acid fuel cells (Si-DFAFCs) in which the fuel and the oxidant are supplied to the electrodes in a passive manner. Passive delivery of fuel and oxidant eliminates the need for ancillary components and associated parasitic losses. In this Si-DFAFC, an aqueous solution of formic acid is in direct contact with a Pdor Pt-based anode and a ...
