EDTA is Oxidizing agent or anti-oxidizing agent?

Question

I want to know whether it is oxidizing agent or not ? If yes then which property makes it oxidizing agent?

Answer 1

I wouldn't say it was an oxidant or a reductant.  The functional groups it contains (tertiary amine and carboxylic acid) are neither easily reduced nor oxidised: it's a very stable molecule.

It's main (sole?) use is as a chelating agent.
