Abstract
Photoreduction is a major obstacle for using the X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) fingerprint to perform metal speciation at the molecular level in biological and environmental samples, especially for metalloproteins. In this study, soft X-ray induced photoreduction was observed in organic Cu(II) compounds during XANES measurements in a third-generation synchrotron source. Next Cu L(3)-edge, O K-edge, and C K-edge XANES spectroscopy, together with the scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM), were used to probe the specific radiation damage processes of Cu acetate with similar local structures to Cu metalloproteins. Breakup of the Cu-Cu bond was hypothesized for the initial photoreduction of Cu acetate. The following radiation damage of Cu acetate produced CuO and an organic Cu(I) compound with a C═C bond, and the further photoreduction of the resulting CuO to Cu metal was also demonstrated. Our results indicated the importance of consideration of photoreduction during soft XANES measurements for the solid state compounds with high valence metals. Reducing the radiation dose to ~0.1 MGy effectively prevented the photoreduction of organic Cu(II) compounds during these measurements. This proposed radiation damage mechanism in Cu acetate may be generally useful in explaining the photoreduction process in Cu metalloproteins.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
