Photoredox reactions of environmental chromium by Piotr Mytych, Paweł Cieśla, Zofia Stasicka

“…Although HCrO4− is more susceptible to the quenching than the CrO42− ion, and oxygen favours the reverse reaction, the reduction can be easy noticeable at air-saturated natural waters. Photoredox behaviour of [crEDTA(L)]n- is more complex: it is initiated also by photoreduction, Cr(III) hv→ Cr(II), which at alkaline medium and a large excess of O2 over Cr(II) is followed by the Cr(II) → Cr(VI) oxidation. …”
