synthesis and characterization of heterocyclic derivatives to evaluate their efficiency as corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel in saline medium

This work includes preparation of az, qz, and tz derivatives from the reaction of schiff base (sb) derivative with anthranilic acid, chloroacetyl chloride, and sodium azide, as well as, the characterization via ft-ir, 1h-nmr, and 13c-nmr. the anticorrosion inhibition of these compounds was studied and the measurements of carbon steel (cs) corrosion in sodium chloride solution 3.5% (blank) and inhibitor in solutions were calculated at a temperature range of 293-323 k by the technique of electrochemical polarization. in addition, some thermodynamic and kinetic activation parameters for inhibitor and blank solutions (ea⋇, δh⋇, δs⋇, and δg⋇) were determined. the results showed high inhibition efficacy for all the prepared compounds, the maximum of which was in compounds sb and az with an inhibition rate of 99% at all temperatures. however, the percentage decreased in other compounds, as it varied and decreased with the increasing of temperatures.
