The TS is calculated to be almost planar. (E) refers to E-fluoroformylperoxy or to its TS of formation, and (Z) refers to Z-fluoroformylperoxy or to its TS of formation.

23. .)Ph, as observed by Groenenboom and co-workers, is predicted to be endothermic and thus has to be driven by the entropy term.
24. -1) should have been readily detectable in our experiments, and monomeric FCOOH in acetonitrile solution is unlikely to have a lifetime in the low microsecond range only. Furthermore, decay of FCOOH would have to be coupled to a secondary formation of carbon dioxide, which we do not observe.

26. 2 extrusion would have to occur via a strained transition state involving a four-membered ring, which appears unlikely. The formation of FCOOO in a vibrationally hot state that rapidly decarboxylates appears more plausible.

29. 2 is higher than the intensity of the CO band by a factor of ca. 8. The absorption of CO thus remains hidden in the experimental noise.
