Abstract:Photochemical oxidation of dissolved organic matter is a crucial component of carbon cycling in surface waters. Photo-oxidation of iron(III)-carboxylate complexes is of particular interest because complexation with iron(III) can sensitize this functional group to photodecarboxylation. The photo-oxidation mechanism of ferrioxalate has been extensively characterized, but it is unclear whether the mechanism or timing is similar for other more complex carboxylates. In this study, we use time-resolved infrared spec… Show more
