The transition metal-catalyzed oxidation of sulfur (IV) oxides has been known for more than
100 years. However, to the best of the authors' knowledge, no electrochemical quantitative
study has yet been carried out to determine its nature. In view of the transition metal
catalyzed oxidation of sulfur (IV) oxides, a series of radicals are involved in the overall
reaction process whereby the sulfite, in the presence of transition metals, may cause
damages to DNA through the generation of these highly reactive species. In the present ...
