A major pathway in the reaction between Fe(II) and H2O2 at pH 6-7 in non-coordinating buffers exhibits inverse kinetic dependence on [H+] and leads to oxidation of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2). This step regenerates Fe(II) and makes the oxidation of DMSO catalytic, a finding that strongly supports Fe(IV) as a Fenton intermediate at near-neutral pH. This Fe(IV) is a less efficient oxidant for DMSO at pH 6-7 than is (H2O)(5)FeO2+, generated by ozone oxidation of Fe(H2O)(6)(2+), in acidic solutions. Large concentrations of DMSO are needed to achieve significant turnover numbers at pH >= 6 owing to the rapid competing reaction between Fe(II) and Fe(IV) that leads to irreversible loss of the catalyst. At pH 6 and
