Abstract
The participation of semiquinone free radicals during the reaction of ascorbic acid with acidified sodium nitrite has been demonstrated by ESR spectroscopy unambiguously for the first time. Scavenging of the nitrosating agent, reflected by the observed free radical concentration, unexpectedly occurs with scarcely varying efficiency over the pH range 0.1--4.5.Entities:
