Summary: | Quantum chemical and theoretical calculations were carried out in the present study of some thiaozole derivatives. Relationship between electronic parameters of thiaozole derivatives 5-benzylidene-2,4-dioxo tetrahydro1,3-thiazole (5-BDT) 5-(4′-isopropylbenzylidene)-2,4-dioxotetrahydro-1,3-thiazole (5IPBDT), 5-(3′-thenylidene)-2,4-dioxotetrahydro-1,3-thiazole (5-TDT) and 5-(3′,4′dimetoxybenzylidene)-2,4-dioxotetrahydro-1,3-thiazole (5-MBDT) and corrosion inhibition efficiency have been investigated by the Hartree-Fock (HF) and Becke, 3-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP), M06-2X method with 3-21G, 6-31G, and sdd basis set. All calculations have been performed using the Gaussian 09W suite of programs. The properties most relevant to their potential action as corrosion inhibitors: EHOMO, ELUMO, ΔE (HOMO-LUMO energy gap), electronegativity (χ), chemical potential (μ), chemical hardness (η), electrophilicity (ω), nucleophilicity (ε), global softness (σ) and proton affinity (PA) have been studied.
