title: Formation of the paramagnetic complex [Cr(OH)5O2]5- in the reaction between chromium(VI) oxide, and hydrogen peroxide or superoxide anion radicals studied by EPR spectroscopy.
abstract: Hydrogen peroxide or superoxide anion radicals form a paramagnetic complex in the reaction with chromium(VI) oxide in an alkaline water solution at room temperature. The complex [Cr(OH)5O2]5- with the g-value equal to 1.9734 is believed to contain hydroxyl groups derived from the alkaline solution and dioxygen derived from hydrogen peroxide or superoxide anion radicals.
