Antioxidative Reactivity of L-Ascorbic Acid and D-Isoascorbic Acid Species towards Reduction of Hexachloroiridate (IV) by Han Zhang, Yanqing Xia, Peng Zhang, Liqian Hou, Ying Sun, Zhaozhan Lu, Yunfeng Tang, Hongwu Tian, Tiesheng Shi

“…Spectrophotometric titration experiments revealed a well-defined 1 : 2 stoichiometry, namely Δ[AA] : Δ[Ir(IV)] or Δ[IAA] : Δ[Ir(IV)] = 1 : 2, indicating that L-dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) and D-dehydroisoascorbic acid (DHIA) were the oxidation products of AA and IAA, respectively. A reaction mechanism is suggested involving parallel reactions of [IrCl6]2– with three protolysis species of AA/IAA (fully protonated, monoanionic, and dianionic forms) as the rate-determining steps and formation of ascorbic/isoascorbic and ascorbate/isoascorbate radicals; in each of the steps, [IrCl6]2– acquires an electron via an outer-sphere electron transfer mode. …”
