As in the subject, what prevent, if any,
the ozone from behaving as an anhydride
in water solution, forming at least some
H2OO3 acid like SO2 does?
(albeit H2SO3 is not so stable to be
isolated from aqueous solutions).

IOW, it seems that O3 (OO2) is not a
sufficiently strong Lewis acid to
pick a H2O molecule and rearrange
to form te mentioned Broensted acid,
as do almost all anhydrides.

Any suggestion is welcome
