Kinetics of Fe(III) Reduction by Ascorbic Acid in Aqueous Solutions
Abstract
The reaction of Fe(III) and ascorbic acid (AA) in food products and digestive tracts affects the efficiency and uptake of these two nutrients. We investigated the kinetics of Fe(III) reduction by AA at pH 5 and 6 in a model system at 25 degrees C. The results indicate that the reduction of Fe(III) by AA is of zero order with respect to AA. The reaction order with respect to Fe(III) cannot be represented by a simple kinetic model at pH 5 or 6. The major stage of the reduction (about 80%, stoichiometrically), however, could be represented by a general equation of -d[Fe(III)]/dt = k[Fe(III)],(1. 811) where k is a rate constant and [Fe(III)] is the total ferric concentration. The rate constant decreased 1 order of magnitude as pH increased from 5 to 6. Aging of Fe(III) solution slows its reduction rate at pH 6 but not at pH 5.

“Furthermore, physiological reductants such as ascorbate 36 may reduce Fe 3+ to Fe 2+ and hence enable the Fenton reaction.”

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.
