Abstract

Rate coefficients are reported for a number of proton-transfer reactions with formic acid. These reactions can be represented by the general equation

                           XH++HCOOH → (HCOOH)H+ +X

: (X = CH4, H2O, N2, CO, HCN, HCHO, CH3OH and H2S). Reasonable agreement was obtained between our observed results and predictions based on the average-dipole-orientation (ADO) model except that ADO theory may slightly underestimate the collision rate.
