Oxidation of ascorbic acid by a (salen)ruthenium(vi) nitrido complex in aqueous solution

Abstract: The oxidation of ascorbic acid (H2A) by [Ru(VI)(N)(L)(MeOH)](+) in aqueous acidic solutions has the following stoichiometry: 2[Ru(VI)(N)] + 3H2A → 2[Ru(III)(NH2-HA)](+) + A. Mechanisms involving HAT/N-rebound at low pH (≤2) and nucleophilic attack at the nitride at high pH (≥5) are proposed.

“…However, the reactivity of nitrido complexes towards inorganic substrates has received less attention . Moreover, there are relatively few studies on the reactivity of metal nitrido complexes in aqueous solutions; most nitrido complexes are either insoluble or unstable in water . We report herein the kinetics and mechanism of the reduction of Ru VI N by sulfite in aqueous acidic solutions.…”

[12,13] We report herein the kinetics and mechanism of the reduction of Ru VI Nb ysulfite in aqueous acidic solutions. Althought he oxidation of sulfite by transition-metal complexes has been extensively studied, most of theser eactions are either one-electron outer-sphere processes involving substitution-inert oxidants, or one-electron inner-sphere processes involving labile oxidants.…”

“…As one of the most important antioxidants, the kinetics and mechanisms of vitamin C/ascorbic acid reactions with various oxidants have been explored extensively [9,10,[16][17][18][19][20]; the oxidants include reactive oxygen species such as HO 2 /O 2 radicals and peroxynitrite, and some metal ions/complexes [16][17][18][19]. Among the metal ions/complexes, single electron oxidants apparently dominate the exploration [9,10].…”

“…In this case, kinetic and mechanistic studies suggest that proton-coupled electron transfer processes are involved in the reaction. Although there is an extensive aqueous redox chemistry of metal–oxo species, corresponding aqueous metal nitrido chemistry has received much less attention. …”
