A Comparison of Atmospheric and Electrochemical Oxidation of Vitamin C in SDS Systems

ABSTRACT Ascorbic acid (AA, H2A) can be solubilized up to 60% by weight into a microemulsion formed by water, pentanol, and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS). Addition of AA to the aqueous solution caused systematic reduction of the microemulsion region in the phase diagrams of the system. Ascorbic anion interacts with dodecylsulfate association structures changing W/O microemulsions towards O/W systems. The polar part of AA is exposed to the aqueous solution and subject to oxidation. The results of kinetic determination of AA decomposition are in accordance with a suggested model. They show enhanced oxidation of AA with increasing pentanol concentration in the system. The system aqueous AA solution/SDS, of concentration in excess of critical micellization concentration (cmc), was found to be more resistant to oxidation in air than aqueous AA solution. This was confirmed by electrochemistry studies of the anodic oxidation of AA on glassy carbon electrode. Sodium dodecylsulfate shifted the AA oxidation potential E pa to more positive values and decreased the peak current I pa . Antioxidation activity of AA was diminished in the presence of SDS micelles.
