Pulse radiolysis studies on redox reactions of gallic acid: one electron oxidation of gallic acid by gallic acid–OH adduct
Literature Information
Using the pulse radiolysis technique, studies on reactions of 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid [gallic acid (GA)] with radical species generated in water are reported. At pH 6.8 and 9.7, OH radicals react with GA to give an adduct initially with rate constants of the order of 1×1010 d mol-1 s-1. This adduct then reacts with parent GA molecules with rate constants of the order 5×108 d mol-1 s-1 to give phenoxyl type radical species having absorption maxima in the 350 nm region. At pH 12 and 13.6, OH/O- radicals directly bring about oxidation of GA. Specific oxidants like azidyl radical bring about one electron oxidation at neutral and alkaline pHs with almost diffusion controlled rate constants. Rate constants for the reaction of Br2- radicals are found to be lower than those for OH radicals by an order of magnitude. At pH 0, both OH and Cl2- radicals react with GA to give phenoxyl type radicals. The phenoxyl radicals formed are quite stable at higher pHs, which make GA a good antioxidant. Rate constants for the reactions of eaq- with different protolytic forms of GA are determined.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
