Distinct photochemistry of adsorbed and coprecipitated dicarboxylates with ferrihydrite: Implications for iron reductive dissolution and carbon stabilization.
Science of the Total Environment 2024 April 11
Although ligand-promoted photodissolution of ferrihydrite (FH) has long been known for low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs), such as oxalate (Oxa) and malonate (Mal), photochemistry of coprecipitated FH with Oxa and Mal remains unknown, despite the importance of these mineral-organic associations in carbon retention has been acknowledged recently. In this study, ferrihydrite-LMWOAs associations (FLAs) were synthesized under circumneutral conditions. Photo-dissolution kinetics of FLAs were compared with those of adsorbed LMWOAs on FH surface and dissolved Fe-LMWOAs complexes through monitoring Fe(II) formation and organic carbon decay. For aqueous Fe(III)-LMWOAs complexes, Fe(II) yield was controlled by the initial concentration of LMWOAs and nature of photochemically generated carbon-centered radicals. Inner-sphere mononuclear bidentate (MB) configuration dominated while LMWOAs were adsorbed on the FH surface. MB complex of FH-Oxa was more photoreactive, leading to the rapid depletion of Oxa. Oxa can be readsorbed but in the form of binuclear bidentate and outer-sphere complexation, with much lower photoreactivity. While LMWOAs was coprecipitated with FH, the combination mode of LMWOAs with FH includes surface adsorption with a mononuclear bidentate structure and internal physical inclusion. Higher content of LMWOAs in the FLAs promoted the photo-production of Fe(II) as compared to pure FH, while it was not the case for FLAs containing moderate amounts of LMWOAs. The distinct photochemistry of adsorbed and coprecipitated Fe-LMWOAs complexes is attributed to ligand availability and configuration patterns of LMWOAs on the surface or entrapped in the interior structure. The present findings have significant implications for understanding the photochemical redox cycling of iron across the interface of Fe-organic mineral associates.
