Hydroxyl radical formation in aqueous reactions (pH 3-8) of iron(II) with hydrogen peroxide: the photo-Fenton reaction
Abstract
Kinetics studies of the indirect photooxidation of trace hydroxyl radical (̇OH) probes in aqueous solutions were used to evaluate the nature and formation efficiency of the transient oxidants that are generated when hydrogen peroxide reacts with Fe(II) that is produced from photoreduction of Fe(III) (λ = 436 nm). Results of studies of these "photo-Fenton reactions" under various test conditions are in good agreement with the hypothesis that Fe2+ and its oxalate, citrate, and phosphate complexes react with H2O2 efficiently to produce ̇OH in water at pH values ranging from 3 to 8. Such reactions involving Fe(II) and H2O2 provide a generally important pathway for oxidations in the environment and possibly for the treatment of contaminated waters.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
