This invention relates to the use of certain keto and diketo acids, esters and salts that are derived from aldopentoses and aldohexoses, to maintain very high levels of iron in solution under oil well acidizing conditions. The compounds described herein chelate ferric iron at low temperatures and are activated by heat to reduce ferric iron to the more soluble ferrous species at high temperatures. Because of these properties and their extraordinarily high solubility in hydrochloric acid, such compounds are capable of maintaining considerably more iron in solution than competing materials.
