The Haber-Weiss cycle—70 years later: an alternative view
Open accessAbstract
In a recent review published in this journal,(1) Koppenol traced the history of the Fenton reaction and of the catalytic decomposition of H(2)O(2) by iron salts. If his purpose was to shed light on current understanding of related chemistry in biological systems, he failed. Moreover, he managed to sow confusion by inaccurate reporting of the work of others. What follows is an attempt to point out these shortcomings and thus to clarify the situation.

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.
