The reaction of Fe(III) myoglobin fluoride with reducing agents

The reaction of reducing agents with Fe(III) myoglobin fluoride from sperm whale was studied at alkaline pH values. The rate of reduction by dithionite was indistinguishable from the rate of ligand dissociation even when the values of the rate constants for both were only 1.0 X 10(-3)S-1 (at pH 10.6...
