Importance of iron complexation for Fenton-mediated hydroxyl radical production at circumneutral pH
The reaction between Fe(II) and H2O2 to yield hydroxyl radicals (HO•), the Fenton reaction, is of interest due to its role in trace metal and natural organic matter biogeochemistry, its utility in water treatment and its role in oxidative cell degradation and associated human disease. There is signi...
