Molecular mechanism for metal-independent production of hydroxyl radicals by hydrogen peroxide and halogenated quinones
- B.-Z. Zhu, B. Kalyanaraman, G.-B. Jiang,
- Original article citation: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences doi:10.1073/pnas.0704030104 (2007)
- Categories: Chemistry, Earth & Environment, Materials, and Physics
- Recommended by: wei zeng on 11/01/2007 06:07AM GMT
- Reasons for recommending:
The authors previously showed that hydroxyl radicals (HO•) can be produced by H2O2 and halogenated quinones independent of redox-active transition metal ions. In this paper, they described a possible molecular mechanism.
