Özet:

 


Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation at B3LYP level of theory and 6-31G* basis set was applied on some triazole derivatives of pyrimidine which led to the optimization of their structures, generation of electronic and other important Quantum chemical descriptors such as the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (ELUMO), energy band gap (ΔE), Dipole Moment (μ), chemical hardness (η), chemical softness (σ), global electronegativity() and number of transferred electrons () using SPARTAN’14 Software. The obtained results shows a good correlation between the chemical structures of the inhibitors and their experimental inhibition efficiencies (%IEs). The ranking of these efficiencies (%IEs) nicely matched with the order of a good number of the generated descriptors but with a varying degree of correlation as majority of the descriptors indicates that I-4 is the best inhibitor among the data set. Furthermore, molecular dynamic (MD) simulations were carried out to search the best adsorption configuration of the inhibitor on the steel (1 1 0) surface using Material Studio 8.0. The obtained results of MD simulations suggest that the interaction was as a results of the chemical adsorption on the steel surface, since the binding energy > 100 Kcalmol-1 for all the inhibitors and the best adsorption energy was found to be -488.07 Kcalmol-1 (I-4). This observation are in good agreement with the DFT results and the experiment findings. Thus; this study provides a valuable approach and new direction to novel steel corrosion inhibitor discovery.
