Abstract

CHADLI, R. et al. Synthesis and comparative study between two pyrazoles in inhibition against the corrosion of steel  in 1 M hydrochloric acid. Port. Electrochim. Acta [online]. 2020, vol.38, n.2, pp.107-123. ISSN 0872-1904.  https://doi.org/10.4152/pea.202002125.

In this work we made a synthesis of two molecules of the same family, the pyrazole 4-(4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-N,N-dimethylaniline D and N,N-dimethyl-4-(3-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)aniline D10. These two molecules have a good inhibiting activity against the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl. This activity has been confirmed by gravimetric and electrochemical studies; we use a potentiodynamic polarization and the impedance spectroscopic technique. From this investigation, we observe that the integration of a methyl group in the pyrazole D allows decreasing slightly the corrosion of steel. For more information about the action mode of our inhibitors, we launched theoretical calculation by DFT method. We used these calculations to discuss the stability, the reactivity, and the adsorption of our pyrazolic inhibitors with iron in acid medium.

Keywords : Mild steel; pyrazole; hydrazine; hydrazones; corrosion inhibition; DFT.
