Abstract
Some long chain fatty acid oxadiazoles are good corrosion inhibitors in the presence of acidic environment for mild steel and N80 steel surfaces. In this study, 2-undecane-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole-2-thiol(thione) (UMOD), 2-heptadecene-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole-2-thiol(thione) (HMOD) and 2-decene-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole-2-thiol(thione) (DMOD) as neutral and protonated forms in gas and aqueous phases have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) with the B3LYP/6-311G level calculations. In addition, the inhibitive effect of studied inhibitors against the corrosion of neutral iron surface is studied in aqueous phases by means of same calculation method. The calculations were made for both molecule structures, since the molecules examined show thione-thiol tautomerism. Optimized molecular structure, highest occupied molecular energy level (EHOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular energy level (ELUMO), the energy gap between ELUMO and EHOMO (∆ELUMO–HOMO), electronegativity (χ), hardness (η), softness (σ), dipole moment (μ), the fraction of electrons transferred from the inhibitor to metal surface, surface (ΔN) were correlated to corrosion inhibition efficiency of studied compounds and the results were interpreted. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) distributions of some long chain fatty acid oxadiazoles have been studied.
期刊介绍:
Protection of Metals and Physical Chemistry of Surfaces is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes articles covering all aspects of the physical chemistry of materials and interfaces in various environments. The journal covers all related problems of modern physical chemistry and materials science, including: physicochemical processes at interfaces; adsorption phenomena; complexing from molecular and supramolecular structures at the interfaces to new substances, materials and coatings; nanoscale and nanostructured materials and coatings, composed and dispersed materials; physicochemical problems of corrosion, degradation and protection; investigation methods for surface and interface systems, processes, structures, materials and coatings. No principe restrictions exist related systems, types of processes, methods of control and study. The journal welcomes conceptual, theoretical, experimental, methodological, instrumental, environmental, and all other possible studies.
