Abstract
Mager and Blank1 have reported the synthesis of fluoropyruvic acid and claim that its infra-red spectrum shows an absorption band at 980 cm.ā1, which they assign to the CāF stretching vibration. This frequency is outside the range normally assigned to this vibration2, and differs markedly from that suggested3 and afterwards found4 for this vibration in fluorocitric acid.
