Talk:Orthoformic acid

Orthoformate anion?
I wonder whether the orthoformate anion HCO33− exists in salts? It would would be a trivalent version of bicarbonate... --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 02:42, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Synthesized?
There's a new article in the Journal of the ACS that reports synthesizing this molecule. The article title is Methanetriol─Formation of an Impossible Molecule. Can someone who knows some chemistry take a look at this? I don't feel confident enough to edit the article myself.
