44. In control experiments, HCOF was decomposed to HF and CO immediately in HF, and the Gattermann-Koch formylation did not occur under atmospheric CO pressure under these conditions.
45. 2+ cannot be excluded.
46. In control experiments, the elimination of formyl group was not observed under the same conditions.
47. The Koch-Haaf carboxylation was negligible because only traces of carboxylic acids were detected.
