Electrochemical and Quantum Chemical Studies of 5-Substituted Tetrazoles as Corrosion Inhibitors for Copper in Aerated 0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> Solution

Abstract: Two 5-substituted tetrazoles, 5-(2-thienyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrazole (2-THTT) and 5-(4-pyridyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrazole (4-PYTT), as copper corrosion inhibitors in aerated 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 solution were studied by using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and quantum chemical calculation. Polarization curves indicate that inhibition efficiencies of tetrazoles increase with increasing inhibitors concentration. The electrochemical results show that the inhibition efficiency of 2-THTT is h… Show more

“…The selection of these compounds as corrosion inhibitors is based on the consideration that tetrazole derivatives (a) can be easily synthesized from cheap, commercially available materials, (b) exhibit high inhibition efficiency even at very low concentrations, (c) are highly soluble in the test medium, and (d) contain several heteroatoms in addition to polar functional groups (such as CN, OH, and NO 2 ), multiple bonds (double bonds) and extensive conjugation in the form of aromatic rings through which they can adsorb on metal surfaces. A literature survey reveals that few systematic works have been reported on the corrosion inhibition property of tetrazole derivatives [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Quantum chemical calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have been sufficiently developed as a powerful technique to study the interaction between inhibitors and metal surfaces [13].…”

“…Beberapa kajian teoritis kimia kuantum telah dilakukan dan diperoleh hasil yang cepat dan akurat sesuai dengan hasil eksperimen (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). Obayes [23] mengunakan teori fungsional kerapatan pada tingkatan teori B3LYP/6-31G++(d,p) untuk membandingkan hasil kajian teoritis dengan hasil eksperimen terhadap tiga senyawa benzimidazol, 2-metilbenzimidazol dan 2-merkaptobenzimidazol sebagai anti korosi.…”

“…Akurasi hasil kajian teoritis cukup baik jika dibandingkan dnegan hasil kajian eksperimen (Obot and Obi-Egbedi, 2010;Sayo's et al, 1986;Li et al, 1999;Liu et al, 2011;Khaled and Al-Qahtani, 2009;Mwadham et al, 2013). Obayes et al (2014) mengunakan teori fungsional kerapatan pada tingkatan teori B3LYP/6-31G++ (d,p) untuk membandingkan hasil kajian teoritis dengan hasil eksperimen terhadap tiga senyawa benzimidazol, 2-metilbenzimidazol dan 2-merkaptobenzimidazol sebagai anti korosi.…”
