Abstract:The redox process between iron(III) (in dissolved form and as the mineral phase ferrihydrite) and phenolic substances has been examined. We investigated the relationship between the structure and reactivity for the dihydrobenzene reductants catechol, hydroquinone and resorcine, and for the 2-methoxyphenol guaiacol with iron(III), by determining the rate of the Fe(III) reduction as well as the production of CO2. This work demonstrates that catechol and guaiacol will be effectively oxidized to CO2 by reducing iron(III). Hydroquinone shows a reduction of iron(III), but no accompanying mineralization could be determined. In contrast, resorcine showed no reaction with Fe(II). The deciding factor on whether or not mineralization occurs were controlled by the position of the hydroxy groups. It is shown that phenolic substances with two hydroxy groups in the orthoposition or at least one hydroxy group and a methoxy group can be oxidized to CO2 while iron(III) is reduced.
