Abstract

Competition of Fe3+ UV-Vis Absorption between Ascorbic Acid (AA) and Clofibric Acid (CA)

In this short communication, we are showing experimental evidence that Fe3+-Clofibric Acid (CA) complex has the ability to mediate the oxidation of a physiological substance, Ascorbic Acid (AA), using an established protocol. The change in UVVis absorption of AA at 265 nm was monitored (after 2 min) as a function of change of the concentration of CA. It also appeared that, over a period of 30 min and 60 min there was further decrease in the overall absorption of the ferric-clofibrate-ascorbate complexes. Further detailed studies are needed in this area.
