“…It should be emphasized that the opening of the ET pathway, reaction , not only accounts for the formation of H 2 O 2 , but also is the gateway to redox chemistry in general on the surface of SWMs. , Therein, HO S – becomes an effective reductant that converts H S + into H S • atoms (strong reductants as well that may otherwise recombine into H 2 ), , while being transformed into the powerful HO S • radical oxidizer. Alternatively, HO S – could directly reduce added substrates, such as pyridine, into carbanions, whereas HO S • could abstract H-atoms and oxidize other species into carbocations. , The redox potentials of these intermediates, and the competition between ET, reaction , and ion recombination, reaction , HO normalS − + H normalS + = H 2 O S are needed to delineate the range of possible redox reactions on SWMs.…”
