Influence of Macrocyclic Ring Size on the Corrosion Inhibition Efficiency of Dibenzo Crown Ether: A Density Functional Study

Abstract: The effect of macrocycle ring size on the corrosion inhibition efficiency of dibenzo-12-crown-4 (DB12C4), dibenzo-15-crown-5 (DB15C5), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6), dibenzo-21-crown-7 (DB21C7) and dibenzo-24-crown-8 (DB24C8) have been elucidated by mean of density functional calculation at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory in the gas and aqueous environment. The quantum chemical parameters including the frontier orbital energies (EHOMO, ELUMO), ionization potential (I), electron affinity (A), the absolute electron… Show more

“…Small values of electronegativity cause molecules to easily reach electronic equilibrium so that molecules become more reactive. The high value of electronegativity shows the opposite [28]. Table 1 shows the order of increase in the value of NH 2 < OCH 3 < OH < C 2 H 2 < CH 2 OH < CH 3 < CHO < H < COOCH 3 < COOH < NO 2 .…”

“…The corrosion inhibition performance trend of benzilmidazole is related to the energy values of HOMO and LUMO on inhibitor molecules. The HOMO energy (E HOMO ) shows the nature of the molecule to donate electrons, while LUMO energy (E LUMO ) shows the nature of the molecule to receive electrons [28]. The bigger the E HOMO , the stronger an organic inhibitor attach to the metal surfaces.…”

“…These parameters are used to determine theoretical parameters such as energy gap (ΔE), hardness (ղ), electronegativity (χ), and the fraction of transferred electron (ΔN) from the inhibitor molecules to the metal. Adsorption of inhibitor molecules to the metal is affected by HOMO and LUMO orbitals [69]. Greater HOMO and LUMO energies produce greater inhibition efficiency.…”

“…Modified PSI with aromatic rings has HOMO orbitals that strongly interact with the metallic orbitals generating chemical adsorption [73]. The density of π electrons is easily submitted from the inhibitor HOMO orbital to the metal LUMO orbital with electronic delocalization in the aromatic rings [69]. Electronegativity (χ) is related to the convenience of atom/ion/molecule for attracting electrons.…”

“…All theoretical calculations are performed with the Gaussian 03 package [21]. The quantum chemical parameters (E HOMO ), the energy of the lowest molecular orbitals (E LUMO ), the ionization potential (I), the electron affinity (A), the absolute electronegativity (χ) , hardness (η), softness (σ), the fraction of electron transferred (ΔN), and the theoretical corrosion inhibitor efficiency (IE theory %) were calculated as previously reported equations [22][23][24].…”
