Intermediate detected : The design of internal combustion engines relies on a good understanding of the mechanism of the auto‐ignition of hydrocarbons. A key assumption of this mechanism, which was commonly accepted but never proven, has now been experimentally demonstrated: the formation of ketohydroperoxides has been observed under conditions close to those actually observed before the auto‐ignition.
